I've always had the upper hand where our love was concerned
|
But now you've upped and left me and I think it's time you learn
|
If you're not back here in my arms by the time I'll count to ten
|
Well I'll wait just a little while then I'll count again
|
|
When you were mine I had you like a puppet on a string
|
So now you'd better listen cause I'll tell you one more thing
|
If you're lips aren't next to mine by the time I'll count to ten
|
Well I'll wait just a little while then I'll count again
|
|
I'll count the lonely hours and days that I was blind
|
I'll count the things I'll do to make you change your mind
|
I'll give you love and kindness and I'll buy you presents too
|
I'll try so hard to always make you happy when you're blue
|
So if you're not back here in my arms by the time I'll count to ten
|
Well I'll wait just a little while then I'll count again
|
Yes I'll wait just a little while then I'll count again
|
|

|
Then I'll Count Again
