Count

Yeah, oh, why, why?

You didn't have to leave me, baby

See I called you today, no one picked up the phone

As fast as I could, girl, I ran to your home

When I arrived, to my surprise, you were gone, oh baby

Your neighbor informed me that you moved away

How could you not tell me and leave me this way

With no goodbyes and crying eyes, I wish you would have stayed

So I count every second, I count every minute

That you are away from me, I just can't take it

Ooh, why can't I get with you?

So I count every second, I count every minute

That you are away from me, I just can't take it

Ooh, why can't I get with you?

Things won't be the same, there's no me without you

For the rest of my life I'll be searching for you

Oh, my first love, don't know how much I'll miss you, yeah

There are lessons of love, and I've learned my first one

My mom says, get ready, I've got more to come

But I can't take no more heartache, I want you

So I count every second (oh-oh)

I count every minute (count every minute)

That you are away from me

I just can't take it oh why

Can't I get with you (can't I get with you, baby, oh-oh)

So I count every second, I count every minute

That you are away from me, I just can't take it

Ooh, why can't I get with you (with you, baby)

So we made a promise, a promise (a promise) yes, we did, oh

It was all alright (it's all good, baby, it's all right, baby)

It's alright (whoa, in your pretty eyes)

It was so innocent (it was so innocent, baby, yes it was)

The first time (ooh, my very first time)

That we kissed (that we kissed, ooh baby)

(Like this) like this, yeah

So I count every second (yes, I do)

I count every minute (ooh, yes I do)

That you are away from me (yes, I do)

I just can't take it (oh why)

Can't I get with you?
