I Start Counting

Dusty Springfield · See All Her Faces [2002]

This year, next year, sometime never

Paper dreams tied up with bits of string



Darkness comes, flowers grow, no one knows

I start counting, I start counting



Sitting by myself in a secret

Chasing thoughts through rainbows in my mind, yeah



Changing time, tomorrow's dream, in between

I start counting, counting, yes I do



Counting, counting, counting, counting, counting

Five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve etc.
