lyrics

Count to Five

Journey in the dark, that’s why I take such small steps
I’ll get there someday
Look into my heart, the places where I’ve fallen
They can show the way
If I fell apart when I heard your voice calling
It’s just my own fear
This is where I start, the place where I’ve been stalling
I’ll see you next year

If I count to five, will I still feel the sadness, will you still be here?
If we stay alive, will we believe we’ve had this, or will it disappear?

One more step today, one flower we can measure
Easy does it now
We don’t know the way, and it might take forever
We’ll get there somehow
If I fell in love when I heard your voice singing
Who am I to blame?
Over and above, in ending and beginning
I still hear my name.

If I count to five, will I still feel the sadness, will you still be here?
If we stay alive, will we believe we’ve had this, or will it disappear?

If I count to five, will I still feel the sadness, will you still be here?
If we stay alive, will we believe we’ve had this, or will it disappear?
If I count to five, will I still feel the sadness, will you still be here?
If we stay alive, will we believe we’ve had this, or will it disappear?
