Lyrics

Five Days Over

I've been waiting oh so long
for her to get back home
and I'm getting tired of talking to
this goddamned telephone
yes I've done my time
and I guess I'm feeling fine
'cause it won't be long till she's around
five days over one day down

I've done everything I can
to kill these wicked days
and I've lost my mind a thousand times
at least one hundred ways
but it's close at hand and I think I understand
that it won't be long till she's around
five days over one day down

So what if I delude myself with innocent mistakes
I still have to wait no matter how much time it takes
I'm just trying to give myself a little bit of fun
anyway I don't believe I'm hurting anyone

If I could I'd go to sleep to pass the time away
and hibernate so long as I could wake up on the day
so I close my eyes but I just can't realize
that it won't be long till she's around
five days over one day down
