The unplanned romance
The unplanned romance
~
I never planned to feel this way
But this how you have left me
Watching the clock, counting the hours
Until I get to see you again
I wont pretend this will ever be easy
We all know love is a difficult game
Who would have thought
That it would come to this
A perpetual wait, waiting for the day
When my eyes light up seeing you
And I smile like a little child
What a feeling you gave to me
Looking back to before this happened
If I had told myself about this
That I would feel this way
Love is complex and strange
Ever changing rules
I may never understand
Though I am happy to feel this way
Counting the minutes, hours, days
Until I see you again

I'm Counting On You (feat. Johnny O'Keefe)
I'm counting on you
Ever since we met darling I've been keeping score
Everyday I count your charms
Every day I love you more
It's plain to see why you're the lover I waited for
I'm counting the diferrent ways you melt me
Your smile your voice your touch
I'm counting the little things you tell me
That move me oh sdo much
I'm counting your kisses and caresses
And cause I thrill as I do
For I'm counting on you
I'm counting the hours since I found you
The days and nights divine
I'm counting the dreams I built around you
Because your love is mine
I'm counting on happiness forever
Oh lover always be true
For I'm counting on you
I'm counting on you
I'm counting on you
I'm counting on you

Waiting For Waiting's Sake
Waiting is more of a feeling than a state or being
When you wait it's not really time spent that weighs on you
IT's really the purpose or reason and the place you wait too
Waiting never is waiting even when it's 5 or 10 or 20 hours or more
It becomes waiting when you feel impatient
When you feel you can no longer wait
That is truly when you being to wait
And wait for waiting's sake
It always seems like more minutes more time
More time is what makes it weigh more, but it's a change
In emotion basically an enigma
It is not even what you do as you wait
If anything at all, it strangely is just the
Feeling. Consider when you simply stare at the
Clouds for hours, you wait and wait
Watch the clouds' gait
But not even a minute passes not in your mind
Not any second is wasted of left behind
But waiting 2 simple minutes is waiting
When you let emotions take hold
Even asked to wait another second is brazen and bold
So you see it is only that emotion
Only that feeling, desire for resolution and restitution
It's funny how we are not controlled by
States or circumstances
Mere happenstance
But rather we are controlled by character, emotion, our feeling
No state of the world can change them
It is only when
We allow our perceptions to change, it is only then
Circumstance even affects us, it only happens when we let it
And so I say when we wait and don't feel waiting
It is not waiting at all, no matter how much time
I realize I feel nothing, no sense of waiting not when I rhyme
I lose perception of time and so I have unlimited time
To write and write and write each and every single
Time I wait and even I wait for waiting's sake

Counting On You
Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two
One of these days Ill be back with you
Counting the ways that I love you
Through and through
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine
Tentatively you put up the signs
Letting me know you are mine
And Im counting on you
To be here through it all
Im counting on you
To catch me if I fall
Whatever you do, remember
Im always counting on you
Flight six, eight, one, gate forty-two
At seven fifteen Ill feel ten feet tall
Knowing you care after all
And Im counting on you
To be here through it all
Im counting on you
To catch me if I fall
Whatever you do, remember
Im always counting on you
Counting on you
To be here through it all
Counting on you
To catch me if I fall
Remember Im always
Counting on you

The Prodigal
I face the day again
Against the window pane.
I remain your closest friend,
And wish you back again.
You wonder how i feel;
You think you've pushed too far.
If only you could see this pen
Scribbling down my heart.
I'll be waiting.
I may be young or old and gray,
Counting the days,
But i'll be waiting,
And when i finally see you come,
I'll run when i see you--
I'll meet you.
But still the days drag on.
Why did you decide to go?
Did you only need to see
What only time can show?
I'll be waiting.
I may be young or old and gray,
Counting the days,
But i'll be waiting,
And when i finally see you come,
I'll run when i see you.
And even if
You never do return,
Still i will have learned
How to love you better.
I'll be waiting.
I may be young or old and gray,
Counting the days,
But i'll be waiting,
And when i finally see you come,
I'll run to meet you.
I'll be waiting.
I may be young or old and gray,
Counting the days,
I'll be waiting,
And when i finally see you come,
I'll run to meet you.

I lose my girl
Alone …Alone …Alone
It’s so hard to be alone
With whole my family
With whole my friends
However I think I’m here alone.
Sad …Sad …Sad...
I lost a beautiful thing I had
I told my mum I told my dad
That I feel good I don’t feel bad
Should I feeling happy or feeling sad
I don’t know I don’t understand
Light …Light …light …
Dark is here where is the light
I can’t see I can’t think I can’t write
And for my happiness I’ll fight
To know what the difference
Between the wrong and the right
Feel …Feel …Feel …
Love is not easy thing to feel
She hurts my heart, I try to heal
She leaves me with the pain
She leaves me with the tears.

Shelter Me
J. spinks
I wonder how Id feel
If we made love together
I wonder how Id feel
Everytime we trembled
In each others arms
I wonder how Id feel
If we could spend this night together
I wonder how Id feel
With your body held against me
All through the night
(chorus)
Oh-oh-oh
Shelter me
Oh-oh-oh
I need you to shelter me
I wonder how Id feel
If our emotions came together
I wonder how Id feel
If the future was forever
And not just tonight
(chorus)
This time its not so easy to take
A broken heart cant be replaced
Dont wanna play a waiting game
From the moment we part
Ill be counting the days
I wonder how Id feel
If we made love together
I wonder how Id feel
Everytime we trembled
In each others arms

Face To Face
I'll be your loaded dice
You're holding all the cards
You set the tone whenever I'm with you
You make up all the rules
In this game of fools
I see your signals change
They go from green to red
It's always stop and go
When the colors are changing
Never let on, never let on
Look to the left, look to the right
Why can't you look me straight in the eye
(Chorus)
10-9-8
I'm always counting down
You feel the pressure when you're under the gun
6-5-4
I'm always counting down
Isn't it funny, I never get to one
I'll be your only chance
I play the only role
I go the distance whenever I'm with you
You make up all the rules
In this game of fools
You keep me in the dark
I'm walking on the wire
I'm on the edge
It's always my time for falling
Never let on, never let on
Look to the left, look to the right
Why can't you look me straight in the eye

Tea For One
(page/plant)
How come twenty four hours, baby sometimes seem to slip into days?
Oh twenty-four hours, baby sometimes seem to slip into days
A minute seems like a lifetime, baby when I feel this way
Sittin, lookin at the clock, time moves so slow
Ive been watchin for the hands to move
Until I just cant look no more
How come twenty four hours, baby sometimes seems to slip into days?
A minute seems like a lifetime, baby when I feel this way.
To sing a song for you, I recall you used to say
Oh baby this ones for we two, which in the end is you anyway
How come twenty four hours, baby sometimes slip into days?
A minute seems like a lifetime, baby when I feel this way.
There was a time that I stood tall, in the eyes of other men
But by my own choice I left you woman, and now I cant get back again
How come twenty-four hours, sometimes slip into days?
A minute seems like a lifetime, baby when I feel this way
A minute seems like a lifetime
When I feel this way...i feel this way

Or cause you pain
I was just caught up in that lying game
But now those days are over
Ive changed my ways
And now Im counting the minutes
Im counting the days
Until you let me come back
Till you let me start
To find a new way
To get back into your heart
Girl Id do anything
For one more chance

Counting Every Minute
Gonna break these chains
Gonna set myself free
Gonna turn on the mains
Feel the power inside of me
Gonna burn all night--gonna burn all day
Youll see me coming
From miles away
Feel me in the air

Gonna show you how I care
Teach you something new

Hey
I'm counting the days until you leave
You're not going make me fall down
I'm happy the day is finally here
So you better off not come around here
You better off leaving here
Hey
I'm having fun and party without you
I'm happy and better off without you baby
I'm done with you
I'm not going back there
I found someone else who treat me right
Hey
I'm getting back at you
I'm not going to talk to you
Summer is here
Now you are gone
I'm excited and all relief
So don't come back
You better off leaving here
I give you too many chances
So you better get out of my way
Hey
I don't need you anymore
I feel fine when you left
I'm back to myself
I'm able to do what I want again
Can you see that?
I'm able to live without you
I'm going let you hand there
You will know how I feel
Hey
I'm going turn around and walk away
So bye forever and I don't want to see you anymore
I'm counting days until you leave
You're not going make me fall down
I'm happy day is finally here
So you better off not come around
You better off leaving here
Hey
I'm having fun and party
Without you
Hey

I Want To Give It All
(graham russell, rex goh)
Here I am again
Ive come to see you smile
I know you understand
I have to say again
Its only for a while
And still youre always here
Just waiting for my call
I wish I knew a way
To give more than I do
I want to give it all
It doesnt happen every day
But it happened to me once before
Those early years I threw away
Now I only have to hear your voice
To make me feel so sure
That your love is why
I want to give it all
Dont the minutes fly
And hours just seem so few
With days apart so long
Its hard to spend my time
When Im so far from you
And still youre always here
Just waiting for my call
I wish I knew a way
To give more than I do
I want to give it all
It doesnt happen every day
But it happened to me once before
Those early years I threw away
Now I only have to hear your voice
To make me feel so sure
That your love is why
I want to give it all

Count On You lyrics Featuring: Jordin Sparks
Hm yeah
Ooha
No ooh
Now I'm about to give you my heart
But remember this one thing (yeah)
I've never been in love before so you gotta go easy on me
I heard love is dangerous
Once you fall you never get enough
But the thought of you leaving ain't so easy for me (nooo)
Don't hurt me, Desert me
Don't give up on me
(What would I want to do that for?)
Don't use me, take advantage of me
Make me sorry I ever counted on you
1,2,3,4 to the 5
Baby I'm counting on you
1,2,3,4 to the 5
Baby I'm counting on you
1,2,3,4 to the 5
Baby I'm counting on you
1,2,3,4 to the 5
Baby I'm counting on you
Understand I've been here before
Thought I found someone I finally could adore
But you failed my test
Gotta know her better
So I wasn't the only one
But I would later put my trust in you
Baby you can put your trust in me
Just like you count to 3
You can count on me
And you're never gonna see
No numbers in my pocket
Anything I'm doing girl I dropp it for you
'Cause you're the one I'm giving my heart to but I gotta be the only one
Don't hurt me, Desert me
Don't give up on me
What would I want to do that for?
Don't use me, take advantage of me
Make me sorry I ever counted on you
1,2,3,4 to the 5
Baby I'm counting on you
1,2,3,4 to the 5
Baby I'm counting on you
1,2,3,4 to the 5
Baby I'm counting on you
1,2,3,4 to the 5
Baby I'm counting on you
I really hope you understand
That if you wanna take my hand
Then you should put yours over my heart
I promise to be careful from the start
I'm trusting you with loving me
Very very carefully
Never been so vulnerable
Baby I'll make you comfortable
1,2,3,4 to the 5
Baby I'm counting on you
1,2,3,4 to 5
Why would I wanna do that?
1,2,3,4 to the 5
Baby I'm counting on you
1,2,3,4 to the 5
Now I'm about to give you my heart
So remember this one thing
I've never been in love before
Yeah you gotta go easy on me

Four Of Two
Underneath a big clock at the corner of 5th Avenue and 22nd Street
I stood and waiting for a girl I knew at the spot where we agreed to meet
It was four minutes of two
At four of two, I stood waiting for the girl
I was four minutes early for the date we had planned
I was planning to say I was in love with her
Just as soon as she showed for a two o'clock date
And the clock said four of two
At four of two, I was staring into space
She was not yet late, according to the clock
I was feeling nervous so I kept looking up
At the clock sticking out of the side of the building
And it still said four of two
At four of two, I began to feel tired
And I rubbed my eyes, and again I checked the time
It seemed as if the sky was growing dark...
But I felt reassured when I looked at the clock
And it still said four of two
I lay my head down on the sidewalk so in case she were coming I would have a better view
But no one was there so I stretched out and closed my eyes for a second or two
It was four minutes of two
At once I awoke to a futuristic world
There were flying cars and gigantic metal bugs
I'd grown a beard; it was long and white
But I knew that the girl would be coming very soon
For though everything had changed, there was still that clock
And it still said four of two

My Love Is For Real
(rhett lawrence / paula abdul)
I made mistakes when I played with your mind
Gave you excuses with each story line
If you ask me how I feel
My love is for real
Watching you wondering what I feel inside
Deep in my soul Ive got nothing to hide
If you ask me how I feel
My love is for real
If you ask me how I feel
My love is for real
So baby please dont worry
I wanna make it better
I wanna be your only love
This time Ill understand you
Ill never leave your side
This time its got to be for you
Lets put an end to these long lonely nights
Things that were once wrong now turned out all right
If you ask me how I feel
My love is for real
If you ask me how I feel
My love is for real
You told me, you loved me
You said that
I need you, you want me
I told you
So baby I wont tease you
Im gonna make it better
Im wanna be your only love
This time Ill understand you
Ill never leave your side
This time its got to be for you
If you ask me how I feel
My love is for real

The impatient hours
The impatient hours
~
The drumming of fingers
The ticking of the clock
Loudly fill the impatient hours
Wasteful in their emptiness
Surely there must be something better
But the wait continues anyway
Waiting on a promise to come good
Hoping its not like past promises
Which all became just lies
Paranoia stalks the mind
Reminding of the past disappointments
Why should this one be any different
Why wait in stale confines
When you could leave, walk away
Forget the promise in an instant
The drumming of fingers
The ticking of the clock
Grow ever louder
Counting each possible outcome
The promise bares fruit
Or becomes another lie
Still waiting on the realisation
In the impatient hours
Wasting the day into nothing

I Start Counting
(basil kirchin / jack nathan / james coleman / patrick ryan)
This year, next year
Sometime never
Paper dreams tied up
With bits of string
Darkness comes
Flowers grow
No-one knows
I start counting
I start counting
Sitting by myself in a secret
Chasing thoughts through rainbows in my mind, yeah
Changing time
Tomorrows dream
In between
I start counting
Counting, yes I do
Counting, counting, counting, counting, counting
Ooh-hoo-oo, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve etc.
