24

Jem

Been given 24 hours

to tie up loose ends to make amends

His eyes said it all I started to fall

and the silence deafened

Head spinning round

no time to sit down just wanted to

run and run and run

Be careful they say

don’t wish life away

now I’ve one day

And I can’t believe

How I’ve been wasting my time

In 24 hours they’ll be laying flowers

on my life

it’s over tonight

I’m not messing no I

need your blessing and your promise to live free

please do it for me

Is there a heaven a hell and will I come back

who can tell

Now I can see

what matters to me it’s as clear as crystal

The places I’ve been the people I’ve seen

plans that I made start to fade

The sun’s setting gold thought I would grow old

it wasn’t to be

And I can’t believe

How I’ve been wasting my time

In 18 hours they’ll be laying flowers

on my life

it’s over tonight

I’m not messing no I

need your blessing and your promise to live free

please do it for me

In 13 hours they’ll be laying flowers

on my life

it’s over tonight

I’m not messing no I

need your blessing and your promise to live free

Please do it for me

I’m not alone

I sense it

I sense it

All that I said

I meant it

I meant it

And I can’t believe

How much I’ve wasted my time

In just 8 hours they’ll be laying flowers

on my life

it’s over tonight

I’m not messing no I

need your blessing and your promise to live free

please do it for me

In just 1 hour they’ll be laying flowers

on my life

it’s over tonight

I’m not messing no I

need your blessing and your promise to live free

please do it for me
