5 to 7 years

Alexander Rybak


Let me kiss your tears away
There's no need to feel afraid
I told you, darling, you're the one
So, don't worry, when tomorrow I'll be gone

I will return
with gold and treasures for you
from all the world

And you may roll your eyes at me
Tell me once more how I used to be
But you hurt my feelings
'Cause everything I do
You know, I do it just for you

And I believe with you in my heart
There's nothing I can't achieve

And so, I hope our love will last forever
Just give me 5 to 7 years and I'll be yours
Because I know that we belong together
I just need 5 to 7 years and I'll be yours

So, please, you must have faith in me
There's no place, I'd rather be than home with you
Where all is safe and warm
But now I need to fight this storm

And I will win
My life together with you,
will soon begin

And so, I hope our love will last forever
Just give me 5 to 7 years and I'll be yours
Because I know that we belong together
I just need 5 to 7 years and I'll be yours

But lately you've been silent
Please answer when I call you
You're so cold to me
And now I'm back
But you don't even notice
I told you I'll be home tonight
But all I see is empty rooms
No pictures left of me and you
A letter lying on the floor, "it's over"
You don't love me anymore

But still, I hope our love will last forever
Just give me 5 to 7 years and I'll be yours
Because I know that we belong together
I just need 5 to 7 years and I'll be yours

Yes, I'll be yours
And our love will last forever
Just give me 5 to 7 years and I'll be yours
Oh, because I know that we belong together
I just need 5 to 7 years
Only 5 to 7 years
Please, give me 5 to 7 years
And I'll be yours
