Five More Minutes Lyrics by Ellis Piper

Adjacent to Alright

2024

You, you made the sun rise
You, you made the whole world spin
When I was very small
Oh, I believed it then
You made the rain fall
You, you made the world turn round
I've grown a lot since then
I still believe it now
And when that morning sun came up
You'd come in to wake me, but
I'd roll right over and I'd say
Oh won't you
Give me just five more minutes
Pull the covers to my chin and
Let me rest my head
Cause I'm not ready yet
You'd smilе as you let the light in
Therе's no use in tryin' to fight it
Rise and shine
The time's not mine to give
You, you gave me my whole life
I, I never had to ask
You've raised me up just fine
And that's no easy task
You're there when I need a friend
You're always a call away
I knew it way back then
I know it still today
And when that morning sun comes up
You still knock to wake me, but
I roll right over and I say
Oh won't you
Give me just five more minutes
Pull the covers to my chin and
Let me rest my head
Cause I'm not ready yet
You smile as you let the light in
There's no use in tryin' to fight it
Rise and shine
The time's not mine
I'm right as rain when you're around
I've never been alive without you
And I don't want to
And Mama, I just can't imagine
The stars would shine without your magic
And I don't want to
And maybe you can't make the world turn
And you, you can't slow down time
I know that if you could, you would
I know it doesn't stop you trying
If heaven were kinder
If there were infinite minutes I could find
I could never stop at five
I need a million lives
As long as you're there by my side
I'm not ready
You smile as you let the light in
There's no use in tryin' to fight it
Rise and shine
The time's not mine
Rise and shine
The time's not mine to give
You, you made the sun rise
