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

  need your blessing
  and your promise to live free
