5:05 TODAY ~BY RICHARD MARTIN
I ask you to release me from the promise that I made,
you said you’re free to go, at 5:05 today.
And as the seconds passed, it seemed more like a day,
sweetheart our world ended at 5:05 today.
It hurt so bad inside, the pain won’t go away,
I knew we’d never recover from 5:05 today.
I thought it was all over, I got up to walk away,
I knew there’s no returning from 5:05 today.
But then you changed your mind, you said the hell I will,
you made me a promise and I hold you to it still.
You said I won’t release you; I won’t let you walk away,
you owe me that promise, please don’t walk away.
You said you would try dear, don’t wait another day,
the clock is ticking in our world, From 5:05 today.
Let’s start our life over, sweetheart let’s start today,
let’s say our love started at 5:05 today.
