Counting the Days (PDF)

I can hear your voice—

I can see your eyes—

How long till I touch your face?

I can see you laugh—

I can hear you breathe—

It's all so clear!

I know the distance in between us can be crossed,

Tracing memories back to find what was lost.

Oh, I am counting the days—

Oh, are you watching for me?

There's a light ahead—

It's a distant star—

I pray that you see it too.

Do you wait for me?

Do you keep the dreams

And the promises made?

Now the distance in between us is not that far,

And the more I reach for you, the closer you are.

Oh, I am counting the days—

Oh, are you watching for me?

With every setting sun,

I feel the distance fall away!

Oh, I am counting the days—

Oh, are you watching for me?
