Count The Days

I would write a thousand letters
Just to talk to you
I would climb a hundred mountains
just to be with you
I would make it snow in summer
if it meant you'd stay
Turn back time when we're together
Make it christmas day

Look at the stars
twinkling bright in the dark
like the snow in the cold winter sun
here by the fire the sound of your
voice warms my heart
but it don't feel like christmas without
you in my arms

all over town people running around
they got stars in their eyes
hurrying home to be close to the one
that they love
light on the tree, shining shadows on me
as I wait by the fire
presents and dreams but for me you'd
be enough
i'll be waiting by the phone
til my baby's coming home
I'll be praying every night
you'll be back soon by my side

I'll be waiting
I'll be waiting for you
I'll be praying
Count the days
Count the day, I've been so lonely
Come home baby
It ain't chrismas
til you're here with me

count the days
count the days til this wait is through

come home babe
christmas just ain't the same
without you

When I think my world could fall apart
and I'm damn near broken in my heart
and my world is falling down
in my mind I will keep you safe from harm
til you're lying in my arms
until then I'll wait somehow

I'll be waiting by the phone
til my baby's coming home
i'll be praying every night
you'll be back soon by my side

i'll be waiting
I'll be waiting for you
I'll be praying
