24 Hours Songtext

von Corrinne May

If I had only 24 hours to live
What would I do
What would I do?
If I had only 24 hours to breathe
What would I say
What would I say?

It's easy to lose track
It's tempting to look back
Fill our hearts with regret
For all we couldn't do
For all we should have done
But didn't take the time to
Well it's not too late, we've still got today

If I had only 24 hours to live
What would I do
What would I do?
If I had only 24 hours to breathe
What would I say
What would I say?

I'd give my love without holding back, holding back
I'd give my heart without keeping track of who would repay
This precious time, melting, oh, melting away.

I'm sick of all my pride
I'm sick of trying to hide
Denying what I know is true
These unopened gifts will cease to exist
If I return them all unused
Well it's not too late, I've still got today

If I had only 24 hours to live
What would I do
What would I do?
If I had only 24 hours to breathe
What would I say
What would I say?

I would take back every single harsh word that I said
I'd spend my time to hear your sweet, sweet, laughter again
I'd never leave your side with 24 hours to live

I'd hold you tight and never stop kissing your face
I'd write love letters, and frame them up so time couldn't erase
I'd hope my love would see you through every step of the way
