Five Minutes

If I but had
five more minutes with you
I would have told
You of my love

I would have laughed
With you once more

I would have cried
Over your sorrow

I would have held
You in a tight hug

I would have begged
You not to go

If I could turn back
The forward moving clock
For five minutes
To be there near you

I would have changed
Those last five minutes
