Every 24 Hours

Driving 12 hours after the show
 Hit the boarder at dawn and kept going
 As the moon crossed my path, I was doing the math
 Will I make it? There's no way of knowing
 I should've called home 'fore she went to sleep
 I pray the Lord for her soul to keep
 Tomorrow will tell who's been tending the sheep
 The world turns every 24 hours
 Ah, turns every 24 hours
 Ah, it turns every 24 hours
 Under a bridge in the black squalling rain
 I could see then but just for an instant
 The wind hauled, the morning roared like a train
 And the skyline was lost in the distance
 Who moves the furniture? Who hit the light?
 Every thing's changing but nothing seems right
 I thought I was smart but that was last night
 The world turns every 24 hours
 Ah, turns every 24 hours
 Ah, turns every 24 hours
 Turns every 24 hours
 So the arrows were down and the way through the town
 Was blocked by the flood and a crash site
 The cop waved me through but I thought of you
 'Cross ten thousand miles of moonlight
 Our life's opportunity moves with great speed
 Pay close attention, it's not guaranteed
 We live in the whirl of wonder and greed
 And it turns every 24 hours
 Ah, turns every 24 hours
 Ah, turns every 24 hours
 Ah, turns every 24 hours
 Ah, turns every 24 hours
