25 Minutes
Letra:
[English]
After some time
I finally made up my mind
She is the girl
And I really want to make her mine
I'm searching everywhere
To find her again
To tell her I love her
And I'm sorry about the things I've done
I find her standing in front of a church
The only place in town where I didn't search
She looks so happy in her wedding dress
But she's crying while she's saying this
Boy I've missed your kisses all the time but this is
25 minutes too late
Though you travelled so far boy I'm sorry your are
25 minutes too late
Against the wind
I'm going home again
Wishing me back
To the time when we were more than friends
But still I see her in front of the church
The only place in town where I didn't search
She looked so happy in her wedding dress
But she's crying while she's saying this
Boy I've missed your kisses all the time but this is
25 minutes too late
Though you travelled so far boy I'm sorry your are
25 minutes too late
Out in the streets
Places where hungry hearts have nothing to eat
Inside my head
Still I can hear the words she said
Boy I've missed your kisses all the time but this is
25 minutes too late
Though you travelled so far boy I'm sorry your are
25 minutes too late
Boy I've missed your kisses all the time but this is
25 minutes too late
Though you travelled so far boy I'm sorry your are
25 minutes too late
I can still hear her say
