I stood at the kerb trying not to disturb
The dark carnival crew
And a glittering voice
Far off there said, "Rejoice"
"As the casualties are but few"
Going to tell you now
Before I forget myself
I could let you loose
But the key won’t undo the lock
And the face of the clock
Seemed to merrily mock
These Five Minutes With You
Mi padre sabia
Y me lo susurro
Vete a Montevideo y esperame ahi
Por donde empezar
Escuchando siempre estan
Por cinco minutos o mas
Si te atrevez
La sirenas lamentan
La plaga que encuentran
Las balas caen
Y te haran desaparecer
El faro oscurece hay poca esperanza
Cinco minutos con vos
English Version: My father would know
So he whispered it low
"Go to Montevideo and wait for me there"
How can I begin?
They’re always listening in
For five minutes or more if you dare
Now the sirens wail
There is a fever in the winding sheets
And the bullets hail
And they pull you right off the streets
Our chances are slim but the searchlights will dim in five minutes for you
The propeller was droning, I woke up alone
They opened the door and they threw me through
And down I went down, like the twist of a screw
Down into the silver, above me the blue
And you stood there waiting but you never knew
Five Minutes With You
They can scatter the earth and find nothing of worth
Wipe out those years of triangular tears
The colours will fly
And the wild wind will cry
I’m strapped to that mast
Knowing they wouldn’t last for
Five Minutes With You
