I count the seconds
As the time comes near
I know as I wait
That pain will be here

I don't want to hurt
I don't understand why
I don't want this pain
I don't want to cry

I want to be loved
I want a hand to hold
I want a shoulder to cry on
I want loving words to be told

I sit here so quiet
In silent sorrow
Hoping
That I might see tomorrow

But until then

I count the seconds
