Björk ~ 5 Years

Mutitalented Icelandic artist Björk comes across as a somewhat eccentric character sometimes, but her music shines. "5 Years" was released on Björk's third studio album Homogenic. This was the first of the many Björk albums I have owned. Every song on Homogenic has a place in my head. I love this album. It is amazing. Björk's voice full of emotion in "5 Years" makes it worth commenting on.

5 Years by Björk lyrics

You think you're denying me of something.
Well, i've got plenty.
You're the one who's missing out, but you won't notice.
'Til after five years, if you'll live that long,
you'll wake up all love-less.

I dare you to take me on.
I dare you to show me your palms.
I'm so bored with cowards that say what they want
then they can't handle.
You can't handle love.
You can't handle love.
You just can't handle..

I dare you to take me on.
I dare you to show me your palms.
What's so scary? Not a threat in sight.
You just can't handle, you can't handle love.
You can't handle love, baby.
You can't handle love its obvious.
You can't handle..

I dare you to take me on.
I dare you to show me your palms.
I'm so bored of cowards that say they want
then they can't handle.
You can't handle love, baby.
You can't handle love its obvious.
You can't handle..
I dare you..
