16 Minutes Lyrics by ​j solomon

Nocturne

2018

And I
I’ve been hanging on a limb
This is loving on a whim
And I am never sure of where to begin
Why
Do you make me feel alive
You’re the highlight of my day
Everyday
How come
You’re the moon and I’m the sun
You pick me up when i am glum
With your French vanilla perfume and your peppermint gum
How
Did we get from then to now
Cuz when you call me up i say
I’m only 16 minutes away
Until we’re
Sailing through the ocean on a sinking ship
You never should have bothered
Don’t you even think of it
We’re braving through the weather
And the coming of the storm
With a roof to keep us dry and some blankets to keep us warm
Why
Do you make me feel alive
You’re the highlight of my day
Everyday
How come
You’re the moon and I’m the sun
You pick me up when i am glum
With your French vanilla perfume and your peppermint gum
How
Did we get from then to now
Cuz when you call me up i say
I’m only 16 minutes away
Until we’re
Racing through the cosmos
Up in outer space
Seconds turn to hours when i see your face
I wanna see your silhouette
In the soft light of the moon
And as we sail amongst the stars
Oh well i wish i knew
Why
Do you make me feel alive
You’re the highlight of my day
Everyday
How come
I'm the moon and You're the sun
You pick me up when i am glum
With your French vanilla perfume and your peppermint gum
How
Did we get from then to now
Cuz when you call me up i say
I’m only 16 minutes away
When you call me now I say
I'm only 16 minutes away
I'm only 16 minutes away
