5 Minutes Away - Natalie Cole

Well, I’ve been a lot of places

And I’ve seen a lot of things

I met all kinds of people

Including queens and kings

Had my share of heartbreak

Stabbed me in my back

I cried to my friends about it And they talked a lot of slack

But oh, what a revelation

When much to my surprise

Then came you, wonderful you

Right before my eyes

5 minutes away, 5 minutes away

You know I been

All around the world to find

It was right at my door

5 minutes away, 5 minutes away

I found love, love

Just minutes away

Everybody’s got a story

And it ain’t nothing new

I’m talking to the one

Who’s been looking for love

And it just might be you

While you’re running around

Hanging all around town

With a fool that ain’t no good

But that very special someone

Could be right in your neighborhood

5 minutes away, 5 minutes away

You know I went

All around the world

Just to find it right at my door

5 minutes away, 5 minutes away

You see, I found love, love, love

Just minutes away

Times when love ain’t easy

It’s a game that we all play

And the prize that we pay

Is sometimes much too high

Take it from me and don’t look too far

Love might be in your own backyard

There’s a better chance to find romance

Just by starting today

5 minutes away

You know I went

All around the world

To find it right at my door

5 minutes away, 5 minutes away

You know, love, love, love

Could be minutes away

I said, love, love, love

Is just minutes away

5, 5, 5, 5 minutes away

5, 5, 5 minutes away

5, 5, 5, 5 minutes away

5, 5, 5 minutes away

5, 5, 5, 5 minutes away

5, 5, 5 minutes away

5, 5, 5, 5 minutes away

5, 5, 5 minutes away

5, 5, 5, 5 minutes away

5, 5, 5 minutes away
