lyrics

take me away from my troubles
hide me from the world outside
take me away from everything that worries me
for 3 or 4 minutes at a time

because 3 or 4 minutes is just enough time,
to rise up, and leave it all behind
it's a gift that you give me, that heals me tonight,
those 3 or 4 minutes, when everything seems right

there's no way I will ever forget it
the way you stood there under the lights
I hung on every word you were saying
because you were telling me about my life

because 3 or 4 minutes is just enough time,
to rise up, and leave it all behind
it's a gift that you give me, that heals me tonight,
those 3 or 4 minutes, when everything seems right

we"re all learning as we go along
an we're all singing as we learn the song (2x)

the deepest truths I've ever heard
tumbled out of the lines of a song
no book or teacher or lover
ever touched me as deeply as a tune that was three minutes long

because 3 or 4 minutes, is just enough time,
to rise up, and leave it all behind
it's a gift that you give me, that heals me tonight,
those 3 or 4 minutes, when everything seems right
