lyrics
Five Minute Walk
Words and Music by Lawrence C. Connolly
A handful of time, glass filled with wine,
Rush past my eyes in the second
That it takes to say hello.
And I'm amazed at how long
it took to ask her out alone.
I fumble a pass. She smiles through the glass
While the glow in her cheeks seems to speak
That it's time for us to go.
And it's a five minute walk
Up Broadway to Roscoe and home.
She brings a bag to keep her dreams in.
I put my key into the lock,
turn the knob and begin
To understand the ways of February days
When the lines that I find start to seem like
Something that I mean.
And I don't really know
If the actor is really me.
She brings a bag to keep her dreams in.
I put my arms around her waist
And tumble down while the crickets in the night
Hum softly while deep within my soul
I'm amazed a how long it took me to ask her out alone.
And it's a five minute walk
Up Broadway to Roscoe and home.
