Twenty-four oceans
Twenty-four skies
Twenty-four failures
And twenty-four tries
Twenty-four finds me
In twenty-fourth place
With twenty-four drop outs
At the end of the day

Life is not what I thought it was
Twenty-four hours ago
Still I'm singing 'Spirit,
take me up in arms with You'
And I'm not who I thought I was
Twenty-four hours ago
Still I'm singing 'Spirit,
take me up in arms with You'

There's twenty-four reasons
To admit that I'm wrong
With all my excuses
Still twenty-four strong

See, I'm not copping out
Not copping out
Not copping out
When you're raising the dead in me

Oh, oh
I am the second man
Oh, oh
I am the second man now
Oh, I am the second man now
And you're raising these...

Twenty-four voices
With twenty-four hearts
All of my symphonies
In twenty-four parts
But I want to be one today
Centered and true
I'm singing 'Spirit take me up in arms with You'
You're raising the dead in me

Oh, oh
I am the second man
Oh, oh
I am the second man now
Oh
I am the second man now
And you're raising the dead in me
Yeah

I wanna see miracles
To see the world change
Wrestled the angel for more than a name
For more than a feeling
For more than a cause
I'm singing 'Spirit, take me up in arms with You'
And you're raising the dead in me

Twenty-four oceans
With twenty-four hearts
All of my symphonies
With twenty-four parts
Life is not what I thought it was
Twenty-four hours ago
Still I'm singing 'Spirit,
take me up in arms with You'
I'm not copping out
Not copping out

 

 

"ah la lala la la life is wonderful... ahlala la la la life goes full circle"

 

 

 

.... just wait a few seconds...

 

 

and...

 

do you hear it?

 

I wanna love you like I never loved you tonight,
If it's alirght
I wanna tell you things I've never said in my life
I'm going to hold when the sun refuses to shine.
I wanna show you that I'll always be your side.

Chorus:
When you call my name, and you need me there.
Girl you know I will be waiting for you.
When you close your eyes and you see me there,
Don't you know that i will be waiting

I wanna kiss you like I'll never kiss you again,
If it's ok.
I can't imagine loving any other this way (I can't imagine baby).

When you call my name, and you need me there.
Girl you know I will be waiting for you.
When you close your eyes and you see me there,
Don't you know that i will be waiting

When you call my name, and you need me there.
Girl you know I will be waiting for you.
When you close your eyes and you see me there,
Don't you know that i will be waiting

(So what she wanna do,
I wanna wish you.
I know you like my style,
So why don't you stay a while,
And when you want me to,
I'll wait for you.)

When you call my name, and you need me there.
Girl you know I will be waiting for you.
When you close your eyes and you see me there,
Don't you know that i will be waiting

sometimes people say things that hurt you alot. and deep down you know they aren't true or the people don't really know you that well at all and eventually, you learn to disregard them.

and then there are those who say things that still hurt you alot. but it's different somehow. beucase you know they see into you.. that they always have your very best interest in mind... even if it means kicking you in the gut a few times.

 

that's the last thing i thought reading "shopaholic ties the knot" would make me think of but here it is in black and cream:
