5 Years Lyrics by Jon Bryant

Cult Classic

2019

[Verse 1]
I bought a ticket to fly
It was the end of a long ride
I needed somewhere to lay my head
I put my heart on the line
Like a shot in the dark sky
On a reckless Sunday night

[Pre-Chorus]
I had to wake in the quiet waters
I needed more than my eyes could see
Like the pull of the tides, brought me into your life like gravity
You were a mystery

[Chorus]
Tonight
I can't see the miles ahead, they lied
Still I'm waiting up
I have tried
I can't go on without your love tonight
Oh, I

[Verse 2]
We made up for the time
The roads we traveled apart
Five years and too many days
I threw my doubts in the air
You didn't seem to care much
Made a belief around me

[Pre-Chorus]
I had to wake in the quiet waters
I needed more than my eyes could see
Like the pull of the tides, brought me into your life like gravity
You were a mystery

[Chorus]
Tonight
I can't see the miles ahead, they lied
Still I'm waiting up
I have tried
I can't go on without your love tonight
Oh, I

[Bridge]
Can't go on without your love
I can't go on without your love
I can't go on without your love, I can't go on without you
I can't go on without your love, I can't go on

[Chorus]
Tonight (I can't go on without your love)
I can't see the miles ahead, they lied (I can't go on without your love)
Still I'm waiting up (I can't go on, I can't go on)
I have tried (I can't go on without your love)
I can't go on without your love tonight (I can't go on without your love)
Oh, I (I can't go on, I can't go on)
Tonight (I can't go on without your love)
I can't see the miles ahead, they lied (I can't go on without your love)
Still I'm waiting up (I can't go on, I can't go on)
I have tried (I can't go on without your love)
I can't go on without your love tonight (I can't go on without your love)
Oh, I (I can't go on, I can't go on)
