Counting Down The Days - Claude Kelly

Now baby, I, I'm just calling you
To hear your voice before I got to sleep tonight
So baby please, just do that thing you do
When you kiss me through the phone and tell me that you're mine
Uh, cause it's so hard for me when you're so far away
I hold my pillow and pretend that it's you
It won't be long, but it feels like eternity
Ah, boy you should see?

How I'm counting down the days til you come
I'll be waiting by the door all day long
Cause I don't think you understand,
Just how empty life is without you
I'll be waiting by the window to see your car
Pulling up into the driveway until dark
Do you know how much I'm missing you babe?
You got me counting down the days

Four days and it's way too long
Three days and I'm missing you so
Two days and I just can't wait
One day, you got me counting down the days

So tell me again,
How it's gonna happen when we're face to face
You better come inside, you better drop your bags
You better run to me, you better ???
Give me all of the love, I've been missing so bad
My pillows tired of pretending it's you
It won't be long, but it feels like an eternity
Uh, baby can't you see, oooh

How I'm counting down the days til you come
I'll be waiting by the door all day long
I don't think you understand,
Just how empty life is without you
I'll be waiting by the window to see your car
Pulling up into the driveway until dark
Don't think you know how much I'm missing you babe
You got me counting down the days

Lord knows, I get so nervous every day you're gone, and
Lord knows, my heart beats faster when I feel you close
See I been looking at the calendar
And crossing off the days as they go
Ahh, you got me wishing, you got me praying
But until you come home

How I'm counting down the days til you come
I'll be waiting by the door all day long
Cause I don't think you understand,
Just how empty life is without you, ohhh
I'll be waiting by the window to see your car
Pulling up into the driveway until dark
Do you know how much I'm missing you babe?
You got me counting down the days

Four days and it's way too long
Three days and I'm missing you so
Two days and I just can't wait
One day, you got me counting, the days
