4 and 20 - Joss Stone
They say time wasted for no man and neither, does this one mean
I've been trying hard to understand what it mean
Many more have come and gone, and it's a little hard to holding on
To what could be, baby, should be baby, crazy all it's making me
I've been holding on, for way too long
It can't go on
You've got four and twenty hours, just one day to prove to me
That your love has got the power, make me believe
You take me where I want to be, four and twenty hours
And that's me
That's me
They say Rome wasn't built in a day, but hey
They got nothing on the patience bed, it's taking me away
See the shade of the hour glass, I'll slip it through your hand
Every grain has got to hurt you, takes you further from your chaise
I've been holding on, for way too long
Either you're in or you're out
You've got four and twenty hours, just one day to prove to me
That your love has got the power, make me believe
You take me where I want to be, four and twenty hours, whooah
And that's me
So everyday
I walk out of my front door
And I'll be wishing it'll be
That today is gonna be the day
That you smile at my face and tell me something
Something that words cannot vow,
And tell me that you love me
Tell me that you're gonna be a man
show up on me baby
You got one day, I'm gonna give you twenty four hours baby
That's all you should need right now
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh (Four and twenty hours)
To make me remember your love (Four and twenty hours)
To make me believe (Four and twenty hours)
Make me believe that you're the man for me baby
Oooh, yeah
I cannot believe you baby,
Four and twenty hours, should be
It should be more than enough for you
