We were starting to get worried
Hadn't shown for a whole week
Now I know why, and I don't blame you
For not saying goodbye
I thought they liked you, but there's things that we never knew
And they pushed you out the door
And I'm a year older, but the pain's still here
And I hope you've healed some more
And I'm just wondering if they never let you go
Would I have something to look forward to
We'll never know, but sometimes I think
If you could've stayed five more minutes
Would I be someone completely different
Can't say I was prepared for what had to be said
But now I know, and it would hurt to much to say goodbye
I thought they liked you, but there's things that we never knew
And they pushed you out the door
And I'm a year older, but the pain's still here
And I hope you've healed some more
And I'm just wondering if they never let you go
Would I have something to look forward to
We'll never know, but sometimes I think
If you could've stayed five more minutes
Would I be someone completely different
But all I know is someday
They're gonna look back and say
What a big mistake we made
Look at all the trust we lost that day
And look at all the people that drifted away
Look at all the stars, look at all the scars
Look at all the trophies we just gave away
But if you're ok, then I'll be ok
We'll never know for sure
What if you could have stayed
Five minutes more
