4 and 20

They say time waits for no man And neither does this woman I've been trying hard to understand Would it be? Many moons have come and gone And this little heart is still holding on To what could be, maybe should be, baby Crazy is all it's making me I've been holding on for way too long It can't go on You've got 4 and 20 hours Just one day to prove to me That your love has got the power Make me believe You'll take me where I wanna be 4 and 20 hours And that's me, hm, baby That's me, yes They say Rome wasn't built in a day, but hey They've got nothing on the patience That it's taking me to wait See the sands of the hourglass Are slipping through your hands Every grain has got to hurt you Takes you further from your chance I've been holding on for way too long (It's been too long) Either you're in or you're out You've got 4 and 20 hours (24 hours, one day) Just one day to prove to me That your love has got the power (Show me) Make me believe You'll take me where I wanna be 4 and 20 hours And that's me See everyday I, I walk out of my front door And I've been wishing and hoping That today is the day that you're gonna You gonna smile in front of my face And tell me something Something worth talking about Tell me that you love me Tell me you gonna be a man Show off for me baby You got one day I will give you 24 hours baby That all you should need Ooh 24 hours should be, Should be enough for you love Just make me believe (Take me where I wanna be) Make me believe that you're the man for me baby Ooh, yeah I gotta believe you, baby I'm gonna need more than flowers, honey, child More than talk I'm telling you 4 and 20 hours 4 and 20 hours It should be more than enough for you --- 4 and 20 - Joss Stone
