I think of my granddad in '44 Overseas fightin' in the war He was the pilot of a B24 And father of my dad If he hadn't made it home okay Then I wouldn't be here today It wasn't until he passed away That I realized what I had Precious time you can't have back I wish I had 5 more minutes One more time with him To share a cup of coffee with him And hear his voice again I'd tell him that I loved him And he would know how much I meant it Cause you can love a lifetime In 5 more minutes When I think about college days It's not just the class you take No, it's more about the buddies you make You'll remember all your life And when we all finished school One did what he was born to do Served his country for me and you And sacrificed his life And we still miss him all the time I wish I had 5 more minutes One more time with him To share a cup of coffee with him And hear his voice again I'd tell him what a friend he was And he would know I meant it Cause you can love a lifetime In 5 more minutes I drove to see my dad yesterday When it was time to go I changed my mind And told him wait Give me 5 more minutes If that's all right with you To share a cup of coffee with me Hey, that's the least that I can do I told him that I loved him And he sure knew I meant it Cause you can love a liftime In 5 more minutes It only takes 5 more minutes
