Song Lyrics:

5 Days

She felt like the moonlight, we wrestled shoulders till the dawn,
She should have been a bird. I'll look at them differently now on.
When you've only got five days, you've got to stretch the nights so long

I was in the desert among the clear night sky and dunes,
Campfire burning, smoke rising all the way to the moon,
With the wild dogs howling,
The wind gently blowing,
There's a value in knowing what kind of love you have

She says there's enough love in one soul to fill the earth,
And so I deceived her, instead realizing what that's worth,
With the wind gently blowing,
Tucked in my sleeping bag,
I didn't realize what kind of love I had

And though we had just five days,
I didn't dream at all then
We stretched the night and owned them
So small they fit in the bedroom.

Now she's on an island,
Having too much fun to dwell,
The mind can transform heavens into hells

I'm not made to crumble, but five days is far too soon
To consider the end of love under the light of our friend moon,
With the campfire burning,
And the wild dogs howling,
By starlight I see
The dark dunes slowly surround me.

At dawn in the desert, I saw a beetle emerge from the sand,
Fogs rolling over tips, he was so much smaller than I am,
I watched his that morning, trying oh so hard to understand

I saw him climb tall dunes, until he reached the very top,
He'd made such a journey, for just a single water drop
That night in the desert,
With the wild dogs howling,
And the wind gently blowing,
Tucked in my sleeping bag,
I had been trying too hard to hold in all the love I had

She left us in just five days,
I didn't even dream then,
Now desert winds are blowing,
I hear the wild dogs howling

She is just a spirit,
Who has that world love I can, tell,
Oh well, only my mind makes heavens into hell.

When I was in the desert,
Wild dogs howling,
The wind gently blowing
Tucked in my sleeping bag,
I realized I wasn't wrong,
You've got to stretch the nights so long
