25 seconds and everything's been said
The pushin' and shovin' is going to my head
My old man upstairs fell to the floor
Those bottles are rollin' can't sleep no more
25 seconds ago
I wished for a miracle
Out comes a shadow in the dark
A little hand reachin' for the stars
Up on the roof she makes the rain
She knows what she wants and as I call
She's fading away
Walk on the roof above the city
Look down and everything's so pretty
They can all wait today
'cause I'm not coming down
Up on the roof time doesn't matter
I'm gonna find my magic ladder
Take me away from all this madness of today
25 seconds the lights are turning red
Feels like they're trying to drive right through my head
The telephon rings but the lines are dead
Can't even remember where I left my bed
25 second ago I wished for a miracle
Light as a feather in the wind
A silver reflection on her skin
Up on the roof she likes to play
Without turning back she takes her chance
And flies away
25 seconds ago I wished for a miracle
25 seconds ago I wished for you
25 seconds with you
25 seconds - a day with you
