I'm counting the days 'til the day that we dance
To the precious few minutes the music enchants
I'm counting the days 'til I look in your eyes
And look for the power that inside of you sighs
I'm counting the days 'til the song's all that's there
'Til you need only see me to know that I care
I'm counting the days 'til I forget all my sorrow
When yesterday's gone and I don't need tomorrow
I'm counting the days 'til you touch me and know
That unlike the others I won't just go
I'm counting the days 'til a moment's so long
But we still want to dance to another song
I'm counting the days 'til the rhythm's so smooth
That my beastly soul the music can soothe
I'm counting the days 'til we dance together
Wishing each dance could last forever.
