[Verse 1] I nearly called to say I'm staying in Then heard your voice and changed my mind again One bus away, a little walk Five minutes till the station by the park I see the lights above the bar And wonder why I made it feel so far [Pre-Chorus] The hardest part was leaving home Now every step is finding its own song [Chorus] Five minutes from a good night One turn from a better mood I can hear my name from the doorway I can see the space you saved me too Five minutes from a good night Most of the worry's left behind Funny how the world gets bigger When I give it a little of my time [Verse 2] The jukebox takes a stubborn coin We tap it twice and everybody joins The game is on without the sound We make up what the coach is shouting about You slide the bowl of fries my way I feel the old me coming back in little waves [Pre-Chorus] The hardest part was leaving home Now every step is finding its own song [Chorus] Five minutes from a good night One turn from a better mood I can hear my name from the doorway I can see the space you saved me too Five minutes from a good night Most of the worry's left behind Funny how the world gets bigger When I give it a little of my time [Bridge - intimate solo vocal, piano and strings] Sometimes I need the quiet Sometimes I need the ride I'm learning which is kindness And which is just a place to hide [Instrumental interlude - orchestra and rhythm section, no vocals] [Final Chorus] Five minutes from a good night One turn from a better mood I can hear my name from the doorway I can see the space you saved me too Five minutes from a good night Most of the worry's left behind Funny how the world gets bigger When I give it a little of my time [Outro] One turn One doorway One very good night
