Eighty Seven Hours and Counting

[twilight(Whippett)]

Eighty-Seven hours and Counting

Three and a half days,
Eighty- Seven hours
Too many minutes still
Far too many seconds to feel
But those too I will count

Eighty-seven hours and counting
Eighty-seven hours and counting

Each beat of my heart
Every click of the clock
Brings you closer to me

Eighty- seven hours and counting
Eighty- seven hours and counting

I can feel a rhythm
that matches the pattern
of my heart.
I know you can feel me,
because I can hear you calling.

Eighty-seven hours and counting
Eighty-seven hours and counting

Time rushes on, twists and turns
Quick slow, quick slow, stop.
But it’s all in the mind
because time waits for no one

Eighty- seven hours and counting
Eighty- seven hours and counting

My heart and mind
have found their place
My body’s turn is coming

Eighty- seven hours and counting
Eighty- seven hours and counting

I close my eyes and free my mind.
My soul cries out to meet its mate
And it feels the answering call.

Eighty- seven hours and counting
Eighty- seven hours and counting

Close as close can be in spirit
And ever closer, ever louder as time
flies on winged feet.
