Counting

One two three four five
I just came alive
After looking in your eyes
And knowing everything's alright

Six seven eight nine ten
I just saw you again
I swore my heart stopped just then
I'm feeling dizzy in my head

And I would count the seconds
Since I first saw you
And I would count the minutes
Since you smiled at me
And I would count the hours
My skin crawled with goosebumps
And I would count the days
And the days turned into months

One two three four five
I can't believe my eyes
You tell me I'm the one you like
You want to see me tonight

Six seven eight nine ten
We're laughing and joking in bed
We're both in over our heads
I'm falling in love, I can tell

And I would count the seconds
Since you said you loved me
And I would count the minutes
Since you actually chose me
And I would count the day
You made me have no fears
And I would count the months
And the months, turned into years

One two three four five
You're holding me oh so tight
You're there for me when I cry
Even though it's from our fight

Six seven eight nine ten
We're shouting and screaming again
Arguing over a goddamn pen
Things aren't how they were back then

Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh

And I swore there'd come the day
That I'd finally stop counting
And my heart would stop pounding
And the pain would be astounding

But I'm still counting every second
That you still love me
And I'm still counting every minute
That you made me feel
And I'm still counting every hour
That you stand beside me
And I'm counting everyday
That you set me free

Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh

And after all these years
I'm still counting my time so dear
My wrinkled skin still goosebumps
After a thousand months
You're the reason my heart beats
After all these weeks
And I'm still counting all the days
Even in this old haze

And I will keep on counting
'Til I run out of days
