Lyrics
- Love is gone, but each new dawn
Awakens an old memory
Love has gone, but time goes on
To keep on reminding me
Chorus
Twenty-four hours a day
Wearing my heart away
Slowly the moments go creeping
While I spend them alone
Hours that were meant for sleeping
Wasted and spent just weeping
Twenty four hours drag by
Twenty four more draw nigh
What do I do in between time?
What can I do in the mean time?
Thinking of you twenty four hours a day
- Dreams untold, the nights unfold
The moments that I spent with you
One by one until they’re done
I live them the long day through
Sung here by Fred Feild:
