Jeremy Walker - I've Got Twenty-Five Minutes Lyrics

I've got twenty five minutes
To tell you who I am
How can I
Tell you who I am
In twenty five minutes

Come on waiter take our order
Can't you see, I'm a busy man
Please understand
I have to leave
In twenty-five minutes

How can she even hope
To know me well
When so much of my life I can never tell
I've just barely begun to come out of my shell
In twenty-five minutes

And I know there is more
That she wants to say
But the clock on the wall took our chances away
She heads for the door, as the waiter I pay
For twenty-five minutes

Two days later, I'm talking on the phone
In my trembling hands
To the girl
Who I once knew
Those twenty-five minutes

Any chance you'd like to meet
With me again
She said sure
But how about more
Than twenty-five minutes

Waiter, take you time
We've got lots to spare
If you never show up with our food we don't care
We'll just laugh when the clock on the wall over there
Strikes twenty-five minutes

Now the time has flown
And I'm glad to say,
Everything worked out on that fateful day
Though our meeting was brief our love still found a way
In twenty-five minutes
