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
