Every one who knows you says
What’s been going on in there
I don’t know what I can do
Every time I hold you, you
Say that I don’t know you, I
Don’t know what you’re going through
I’ve heard you cry
Now I cry too
What in the world’s come over you

If I counted to ten
Would you love me again
An ocean comes back to the shore
If I counted to five
Would our love survive
If I counted to three
Would you come back to me

Something in my heart shows me
Something I don’t want to see
How can I believe my eyes
When I’m looking at you, I
Know you make me happy but
I can’t make you happy why
I lie awake
Now you do too
What in the world’s come over you

If I counted to ten
Would you love me again
An ocean comes back to the shore
If I counted to five
Would our love survive
If I counted to three
Would you come back to me

Show me a sign
And we’ll pull through
We’ll show the world
What love can do
What in the world’s come over you

If I counted to ten
Would you love me again
An ocean comes back to the shore
If I counted to five
Would our love survive
I know I can’t do anymore

If I counted to ten
Would you love me again
An ocean comes back to the shore
If I counted to five
Would our love survive
If I counted to three
Would you come back to me
