Artist: Jem
Song: 24

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
