I close my eyes and count to ten
(Clive Westlake)
It isn’t the way that you lookAnd it isn’t the way that you talkIt isn’t the things that you say or doMake me want you so
It is nothing to do with the wineOr the music that’s flooding my mindBut never before have I been so sureYou’re the someone I dreamed I would find
It’s the way you make me feelThe moment I am close to youIt’s a feeling so unrealSomehow I can’t believe its trueThe pounding I feel in my heartThe hoping that we’ll never partI can’t believe this is really happening to me
I close my eyes and count to tenAnd when I open them you’re still hereI close my eyes and count againI can’t believe it but you’re still here
We were strangers a moment agoWith a few dreams but nothing to showThe world was a placeWith a frown on its faceAnd tomorrow was just, I don’t know
But the way you make me feelThe moment I am close to youMakes today seem so unrealSomehow I can’t believe its trueTomorrow will you still be here?Tomorrow will come but I fearThat what is happening to meIs only a dream
I close my eyes and count to tenAnd when I open them you’re still hereI close my eyes and count againI can’t believe it but you’re still here
