24 hours

24 hours the light's go down in baltimore
Blink your eyes the sun is coming up
The radio is playing songs we should have known but
Never seems to be quite loud enough

The traffic lights they match the backlit sky
Colors fade like the forth of july
Maybe i'm not thinking right
Took one day to fall down beneath you
Took one dream to make this the real truth
Another kiss could bring this all into the light

Chorus
And i don't want to be addicted i just want to be that high
Can see the northern lights in your eyes
Don't want the complication i just want to know the truth
Want one more moment in you

7:30 there's no turning back from here
As the candlelight goes dancing in your eyes
22 years 8 a.m. seems late to me
Now i've lost my concept of time

The clock alarms been going on for days
Why must i dream to see your face
Maybe i'm not thinking right
Took one day to fall down beneath you
Took one dream to make this the real truth
Another kiss could bring this all into the light

Chorus

Bridge
When it's hard enough to speak
When i can't breath
And now you're all i want to see

And i don't want to be addicted i just want to be that high
Can see the northern lights in your eyes
Don't want the complication i just want to know the truth
Want one more moment
In you, in you, in you

24 hours
The lights go up in washington
And i'm waking up right next to heaven
