  • Oh well, in five years time we could be walking round a zoo
    With the sun shining down over me and you
    And there'll be love in the bodies of the elephants, too
    I'll put my hand over your eyes but you'll peek through

    And there'll be sun, sun, sun all over our bodies
    And sun, sun, sun all down our necks
    And there'll be sun, sun, sun all over our faces
    And sun, sun, sun, so what the heck

    'Cause I'll be laughing at all your silly little jokes
    And we'll be laughing about how we used to smoke
    All those stupid little cigarettes and drink stupid wine
    'Cause its what we needed to have a good time

    But it was fun, fun, fun when we were drinking
    It was fun, fun, fun when we were drunk
    And it was fun, fun, fun when we were laughing
    It was fun, fun, fun, oh, it was fun

    Oh well, I look at you and say it's the happiest that I've ever been
    And I'll say I no longer feel I have to be James Dean
    And she'll say, yeah well, I feel pretty a happy too
    And I'm always pretty happy when I'm just kicking back with you

    And it'll be love, love, love all through our bodies
    And love, love, love all through our minds
    And it'll be love, love, love all over her face
    And love, love, love all over mine

    And though admittedly all these moments are just in my head
    I'll be thinking bout them as I'm lying in bed
    And I know that admittedly it might not even come true
    But in my mind I'm havin' a pretty good time with you

    Oh, in five years time I might not know you
    In five years time we might not speak
    Oh, in five years time we might not get along
    In five years time you might just prove me wrong

    Oh, there'll be love, love, love wherever you go
    There'll be love, love, love wherever you go
    There'll be love, love, love wherever you go
    There'll be love, love, love wherever you go

    There'll be love, love, love wherever you go
    There'll be love, love, love wherever you go
    There'll be love, love, love wherever you go
    There'll be love, love, love wherever you go
    There'll be love Writer/s: CHARLES FINK
