Five minutes’ll cut you down from whatever cloud you’ve climbed on 
Five minutes’ll cut you down from whatever cloud you’ve climbed on 
Whoa - oh - oh 
Many many many moons ago 
I met a pretty stranger all aglow 
Boy was she a mystery to me 
She warmed my cold feet 
Yeah, a Shiny shiny shiny new affair 
I laid my hat down there 
Thinking what I saw inside would be 
Nothing to me 
Five minutes’ll cut you down from whatever cloud you’ve climbed on 
Five minutes’ll cut you down from whatever cloud you’ve climbed on 
Days, Fizzle fizzle fizzled it away 
Just when I was throwing up my sail 
I saw the gleam of something in the sand 
Something so grand 
Time, was slowly surely turning grape to wine 
I’d never stuck around to find 
Right, inside the old was something gold and new 
Trying to poke through 
Five minutes’ll cut you down from whatever cloud you’ve climbed on 
Five minutes’ll cut you down from whatever cloud you’ve climbed on 
I’m coming to stick to, I’m coming to stick to you 
Five minutes’ll cut you down from whatever cloud you’ve climbed on 
Five minutes’ll cut you down from whatever cloud you’ve climbed on 
I’m coming to stick to, I’m coming to stick to you.
