When I tell them you're so far away
and they groan and grimace just for me
and tell me that it's rough and
that we'll make it
I just don't have the heart to say
that 5 seconds is too far away
but somehow I know
that I can take it
When I hear your voice,
I know
That 5 seconds is a chasm
that I'll never fear to jump,
because you are on the other side
my hope, my dream, my love.
So I'll run and jump off of this cliff
and show that love can fly
because 5 seconds is too far away
and I want you to know
that you are mine.
I feel you through the speaker phone
your voice falls gently in my ear
it shows me there's a road
I'm gonna take it
I know these dreams aren't just my own
and I find that my heart's on loan
and I know that this far distance
can never break it
Cause when I hear your voice,
I know
That 5 seconds is a chasm
that I'll never fear to jump,
because you are on the other side
my hope, my dream, my love.
So I'll run and jump off of this cliff
and show that love can fly
because 5 seconds is too far away
and I want you to know
that you are mine.
