Lyrics

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
And I'll put my hands 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

'Cos 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
'Cos it's 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'll 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, oh, pretty 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 nearly all these moments are just in my head
I'll be thinking about them as I'm lying in bed
And I know that it really, it might not even come true
But in my mind I'm having 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
