Counting On Time - Sexsmith & Kerr

(Think we found a LoopHole) Woah, ah, woah, ah Oh, ah Woke up this mornin' to a text I woke up to an empty bed That empty glass of wine, got thoughts flyin' through my head Knowin' that this time, she was way more than upset I call her phone, no answer (yeah) I tried to call her phone, she didn't pick up Lord knows, I love her, got a lot of love to give her I sent it in a text, it didn't deliver, woah-oh Now I'm wonderin' (did you do this by yourself?) Or was it one of them? (Or your friends in your ear?) Like, "Be done with him" (or is there someone else?) And are you under him? 'Cause I, I, I (I, I, I) Countin' all the time (countin' every tick) You know you on my mind (mind) So, are you comin' home? (Baby, come home) 'Cause I been (oh, I) Sittin' here, lookin' at the clock on the wall Sittin' here, lookin' at the clock, and alone Waitin' on you to walk (through the door) And I'm, sittin' here, lookin' at the clock on the wall Sittin' here drinkin' Henny straight out the bottle Hopin' that you walk (through the door) Time (more time) All she ever wanted was mine Blinded by my greed, I failed to read all of the signs Love is all she need, forget the Dior and the diamonds Deep off in my mind Thinking 'bout the thousand times She said she would leave, but this time she wasn't lyin' This time she was ready And she didn't regret it She left our picture but she didn't forget it (that's how I know it's over) Got me countin' every tick, watchin' the door (Prayin' I still got your heart and soul) Girl, are you alone, or in somebody's arms? (It's killin' me to know) 'Cause I been (oh, I) Sittin' here, lookin' at the clock on the wall Sittin' here, lookin' at the clock, analog Waitin' on you to walk (waitin', waitin' on you to, walk through the door) And I'm, sittin' here, lookin' at the clock on the wall (I'm sittin' here, I'm watchin' every second) Sittin' here, drinkin' Henny straight out the bottle (out the bottle) Hopin' that you walk (hopin' that you call my phone, my darling) Promise I can't live without her (I can't live without her) God knows I need your lovin' (God knows I need) And it hurts so bad (and it hurts) That she's gone away, woah I pray she'll come back one day in my life, woah, oh, woah, oh (Baby, I'll be) baby, I'll be (Sittin' here, waitin' on you to come home again) sittin' here, waitin', babe (I won't leave) I won't leave (Promise I'll be here to the very end, by your side) Said I ain't goin' nowhere, oh Come on home to me, baby
