5 minutes past loneliness Lyrics by The Sandmen

Sleepyhead

0

It's 5 minutes past loneliness
The Sandmen
It's 5 minutes past loneliness
A week since dawn
A hundred hours since you were here
And life goes on
A broken clock, a spark of time
The moon eclipse the sun
A thousand days to realise
The moment you were gone
Play the cards and guess the rime
Make it/them deal with proper time
Deuce is high and ace is low
Life is fast but time is slow
A week of seven mondays
It felt like twice as long
And all of them on one day
Your shadow lingered on
Half past eternity
That's when you hear the drums
Put your faith in yesterday
If tomorrow never comes
Play the cards and guess the rime
Make it/them deal with proper time
Deuce is high and ace is low
Life is fast but time is slow
It's 5 minutes past loneliness
A weak since dawn
A hundred hours since you were here
And life goes on
Half past eternity
That's when you hear the drums
Put your faith in yesterday
If tomorrow never comes
Play the cards and guess the rime
Make it/them deal with proper time
Deuce is high and ace is low
Life is fast but time is slow
