I Count the Times Let the game begin I think i know where you've been Wrapped in aching eye Cause that gray flashed in your eyes When you tremble like a rose, still dressed in summer clothes, still suffering This pattern is in your eyes The flowers faint when you're near You don't understand me, I don't pretend to be that clear Till I tremble like the rose, How do I follow where you go, still suffering? I count the times I've read the signs I follow you 10 steps behind I dropped the line I count the times You burnt me I count the times I made some plans I used to think of someone's hands I dropped the line I count the times you burnt me Do I tremble like the rose? How do I follow where you go, still suffering? I am the finger of someone's hands I can't count the times you came to nothing I count the times I've read the signs I follow you 10 steps behind I draw the line I count the times You burnt me And all words I've never said And all the things I never did I draw the line I count the times You burnt me You burnt me
