Lyrics

Counting on You
c. 2011 words and music by Steven Robert Lawson
You were the first one to leave the ballroom that night
I checked your fur at the door
the second you ask me to go for a ride, I hopped right in your shinning red Porsche.
The third thing I remember seems like the forth.
that is the forth of July.
and I'll take the firth as to the sixth thing we did
but I can say we had a seventh heaven of a time
No I never counted on you being mine.
chorus;
I've counted stars in the sky
I count sheep late at night.
I count my nickels and I'm counting my time
but I never counted on you being mine

There's eight wonders in this world They're wondrous alright
That night I found number nine.
Number nine is a ten and I'll say it again
I never counted on you being mine
repeat chorus;
Now I'm counting my blessings
cause I never counted on you being mine.
