Verse 1:
CFGF Oh well in five years time we could be walking round a zoo
CFGF With the sun shining down over me and you
CFGF And there'll be love in the bodies of the elephants too
CFGF And I'll put my hands over your eyes, but you'll peep through
Chorus:
CF And there'll be sun sun sun
GF All over our bodies
CF And sun sun sun
GF All down our necks
CF And sun sun sun
GF All over our faces
CF And sun sun sun
GF So what the heck
Verse 2:
Cause I'll be laughing at all your silly little jokes
And we'll be laughing about how we used to smoke
All those stupid little cigarettes
And drink stupid wine
Cause it's what we needed to have a good time
Chorus:
And it was fun fun fun
When we were drinking
It was fun fun fun
When we were drunk
And it was fun fun fun
When we were laughing
It was fun fun fun
Oh it was fun
Verse 3:
Oh well I look at you and say
It's the happiest that I've ever been
And I'll say I no longer feel I have to be James Dean
And she'll say
Yah well I feel all pretty happy too
And I'm always pretty happy when I'm just kicking back with you
Chorus:
And there'll be
Love love love
All through our bodies
And love love love
All through our minds
And there'll be Love love love
All over her face
And Love love love
All over mine
Verse 4:
Although maybe all these moments are just in my head
I'll be thinking about them as I'm lying in bed
And all that I believe might never really come true
But in my mind I'm having a pretty good time with you
Chorus:
Oh
Five years time
I might not know you
Five years time
We might not speak
Oh
In five years time
We might not get along
In five years time
You might just prove me wrong
Oh there'll be love love love
Wherever you go
There'll be love love love
Wherever you go
There'll be love love love
Wherever you go
There'll be love love love
Wherever you go
There'll be love love love
Wherever you go
There'll be love love love
Wherever you go
There'll be love love love
Wherever you go there'll be love
