Verse 1:

Nothing could have prepared me for this pain I’m going through

There’s a empty place inside my heart from the second I lost you

Though I know you’re with Jesus, we’ll be together once again

I still wish I had another moment, between now and then

 

Chorus:

I long for five more minutes to say I love you

A whisper of the clock to show I care

If only I could roll back the hands of time

I would hold you in my arms…………..all that I would share

 

Verse 2:

In the meantime, Lord, I need you even more to help me through this season

God give me peace that passes all understanding; joy without reason

Fill this void with your love when I feel the need to cry

'Cause this heart is only human, and there will be times that I

 

 

Chorus:

Long for five more minutes to say I love you

A whisper of the clock to show I care

If only I could roll back the hands of time

I would hold you in my arms…………all that I would share

​

Yet I find comfort knowing you’re in Heaven

Walking streets of Glory, Bright & Fair

So for now in His work I will continue

Until the day He calls me home, and I meet you there

 

Ending:

Oh what I give

Oh what I would do

For five more minutes with you
