One Minute

Title: One Minute [Intro] If I had one minute left I know where I want to be Not looking for a heaven Just with you here next to me [Verse 1] I wouldn’t waste it talking About all the things I’ve done Wouldn’t count the doors I opened Or the places I have run I’d find you in the quiet Put your hand inside of mine Study every little feature Like I’m trying to stop time [Pre-Chorus] I’d listen to you breathing Feel your heartbeat through your chest If the whole world disappeared then I would still have what was best [Chorus] If I only had one minute I would spend it loving you With my forehead pressed against yours Like we always used to do I would tell you you’re my whole life Though you’ve heard it all before And I’d hold you even tighter When there’s ten seconds more I don’t need another sunrise I don’t need a last goodbye If I only had one minute I’d want you there when I close my eyes [Verse 2] I would memorize your fingers How they fit around my own How your voice can make a room feel Like the safest place I’ve known I would kiss you slow and softly Like there’s nowhere else to go And I’d try to make you feel it Every love I couldn’t show [Pre-Chorus] No angels in the doorway No bright tunnel pulling through Just the ache of knowing time ends When I’m still in love with you [Chorus] If I only had one minute I would spend it loving you With my forehead pressed against yours Like we always used to do I would tell you you’re my whole life Though you’ve heard it all before And I’d hold you even tighter When there’s five seconds more I don’t need another sunrise I don’t need a last goodbye If I only had one minute I’d want you there when I close my eyes [Bridge] At forty seconds, kiss me At thirty, say my name At twenty, let me tell you I would choose you all again At ten, don’t look away, love At five, just hold me near And when the final second comes Let your voice be all I hear [Final Chorus] If I only had one minute I would make it feel like years I would fill it with your laughter I would kiss away your tears I would tell you you’re still beautiful As the room begins to fade And I’d thank you for the lifetime That one minute couldn’t save I don’t need another sunrise I don’t need the reason why If I only had one minute I’d want your love as my last light [Outro] If I had one minute left There’s nowhere else I’d be Not reaching out for heaven Just reaching out for you And if the world went silent Before I made it through My final thought would still be How much I’m in love with you
