I Close My Eyes and Count to Ten - Marc Almond, Sarah Cracknell

It isn’t the way that you look

And it isn’t the way that you talk

It isn’t the things that you say or do Make me want you so It is nothing to do with the wine

Or the music that’s flooding my mind

But never before have I been so sure

Youre the someone I dreamed I would find

Its the way you make me feel

The moment I am close to you

Its a feeling so unreal

Somehow I can’t believe it’s true

The pounding I feel in my heart

The hoping that well never part

I can’t believe this is really happening to me

I close my eyes and count to ten

And when I open them you’re still here

I close my eyes and count again

I can’t believe it but you’re still here

We were strangers a moment ago

With a few dreams but nothing to show

The world was a place

With a frown on it’s face

And tomorrow was just, I don’t know

But the way you make me feel

The moment I am close to you

Makes today seem so unreal

Somehow I can’t believe it’s true

Tomorrow will you still be here?

Tomorrow will come but I fear

That what is happening to me Is only a dream

I close my eyes and count to ten

And when I open them you’re still here

I close my eyes and count again

I can’t believe it but you’re still here

I close my eyes and count to ten

And when I open them you’re still here
