Counting Down to 2

A million faces Crowd the usual places A sea of mes But little you, I swim upstream As if I knew A waterfall's ahead I will not stop So I jump instead, Is time a river with no end Its sands run through Two searching hands But there was you You were with whom You were with me, Counting down to 2 The grains of time are salt A name's a name only if called I run like chalk On walls of white Drowned in the dark Of a moonless night But there was you You were with whom You were with me, Counting down to 2 But there was you You were with whom You were with me, Counting down to 2 The sea of mes But little you, I swim upstream As if I knew But there was you You were with whom You were with me, Counting down to 2 But there was you You were with whom You were with me, Counting down to 2 (And there was you) Counting down to 2 (And there was me) Counting down to 2
