It was a great day,
the 24th of October,
a bright sunny day
We were thirty years old, and a month,
sensitive like two lenses
Addicted to the radio,
not even one day passed,
that we listened to see if the country is fighting
We had only 24 hours then

What do you do in 24 hours we asked
when we were sitting in the dark
What do people that hesitate, what do planes do
when they have no place to land
You told me there are days
you are sad being with me,
because you are so happy
I told you there are days that we have
only 24 hours.

Chorus:
When you get up and sit down
it means you can not decide -
you told me
When I listen to songs that touch the heart
it means I lack love with you
The world includes good and bad,
it is known people
are searching for who they are
And there are only 24 hours
There are only 24 hours
And it's a shame on the waste of time.

It was a beautiful day full of heat and flesh,
we sun baked
You brought me one thing and took the rest
We chewed chewing gum
until midnight
I turn the table with anger
when I thought you were sleeping around
What's with you? You answered:
Just 24 hours



It was a beautiful day,
the 24th of October,
I dropped my keys
You picked it up for me;
this is how you develop relationships
with men women and opinions
You told me that even if I cry until tomorrow,
I will not feel better
I told you the eternity lasts
only 24 hours
