Colin James

Five Long Years

Well, I see ya

Holdin' hands with your lover

And you're makin' plans with each other

It fits real good on you

Well, don't worry

I didn't come to make things strange

'Cause there's a reason that things change

There's nothin' we can do

And it's been five long years

Since I've seen your lovely eyes

Your girls have grown

She sees right through my thin disguise

You know I still love you

You knew I'd never change

And it's been five long years and I love you

Just the same

When you see me

Do you remember the times when we traveled

South of the borderline?

When love was young, time was on our side

We danced in the Rio Grande

And we listened to all the Mexican bands

Singin' songs of love

When our hearts were young, yeah

And it's been five long years

Since I've seen your lovely eyes

The girls have grown

She sees right through my thin disguise

You know I still love you

You knew I'd never change

And it's been five long years and I love you

Just the same

Oh, yeah

Five long years

Five long years

Five long years

Since I've seen your lovely eyes

Things have changed

You see right through my thin disguise

She sees right through me, yeah

You know I still love you

You knew I'd never change

And it's been five long years and I love you

Just the same

And it's been five long years and I love you

Just the same

And it's been five long years and I love you

Just the same

Yes baby, oh yeah

Five long years

Five long years
