[Verse]
You said you'd come back for me
Dropping me off in the rain
You said be a good girl
And that's what I'm being
If I'm good will you be there
With open arms to me
And I'm thinking
How many days went by?
How many hours did I sit there?
Wondering where you are?
Where you are
[Chorus]
Counting the days go by
Day by day
Counting the hours until you're here
Counting the minutes that pass
Minute by minute
Counting the times we've had before
[Verse]
I waited and waited for you to come
Sitting alone by my window
Watching the rain fall to the street
Sliding across the pavement
If I'm bad will you leave me?
Forever and not glance back
And I'm thinking
How many days went by?
How many hours did I sit there?
Wondering where you are?
Where you are
[Chorus]
Counting the days go by
Day by day
Counting the hours until you're here
Counting the minutes that pass
Minute by minute
Counting the times we've had before
[Bridge]
I haven't forgotten you
One day
I'll be there by your side
Oh
Just keep your head up high
High in the sky
One day
I'll be there, don't worry
I'll be there for you
[Chorus]
Counting the days go by (days go by)
Day by day
Counting the hours until you're here (hours until you're here)
Counting the minutes that pass (minutes oh minutes)
Minute by minute
Counting the times we've had before (we've had before)
Counting the days
Counting the hours
Counting the minutes
And times
Counting the days
Counting the hours
Counting the minutes
And times
Counting the days go by
Day by day
Counting the hours until you're here
Counting the minutes that pass
Minute by minute
Counting the times we've had before
