5 More Minutes Lyrics by Granger Smith

Remington

2009

[Verse 1]
I think of my granddad in '44
Overseas fighting in the war
He was the pilot of a B24
And father of my dad
[Verse 2]
If he hadn't made it home okay
Then I wouldn't be here today
It wasn't until he passed away
That I realized what I had
Precious time you can't have back
[Chorus]
I wish I had five more minutes
One more time with him
To share a cup of coffee with him
And hear his voice again
I'd tell him that I loved him
And he would know how much I meant it
'Cause you can love a lifetime
In five more minutes
[Verse 3]
When I think about college days
It's not just the class you take
No, it's more about the buddies you make
You'll remember all your life
[Verse 4]
And when we all finished school
One did what he was born to do
Served his country for me and you
And sacrificed his life
And we still miss him all the time
[Chorus]
I wish I had five more minutes
One more time with him
To share a cup of coffee with him
And hear his voice again
I'd tell him what a friend he was
And he would know I meant it
'Cause you can love a lifetime
In five more minutes
[Verse 5]
I drove to see my dad yesterday
When it was time to go
I changed my mind
And told him, "Wait...
[Chorus]
Give me five more minutes
If that's alright with you
To share a cup of coffee with me
Hey, that's the least that I can do"
I told him I loved him
And he sure knew I meant it
'Cause you can love a lifetime
In five more minutes
[Tag]
It only takes five more minutes
