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
