Countdown until the time we're together,
But then what does that mean? 
Just another place to hang around 
Those eyes that fill me up with a longing 
Taking over my life 
Look at me like I can't do a thing 

Do you want to tell me 
How much it is you need me 
Or are you saying you would rather be alone? 
Do you want to tell me 
How, when you're around me 
You're scared of taking down a heart besides your own? 
 
Uptight from time to time 
Is it something or the state of your mind 
Or is it simply the way it is? 
Upset, small wonder why 
With the kinds of words you want to know 
Why make it that much harder just to live? 

Do you want to tell me 
How much it is you need me 
Or are you saying you would rather be alone? 
Do you want to tell me 
How, when you're around me 
You're scared of taking down a heart besides your own? 
 
Countdown until the time we're together 
But then what does that mean? 
Just another place to lose my pride 
Those eyes that lead the way to a price 
Despite being harder to pay 
Guarantees that I'll be satisfied 

Do you want to tell me 
How much it is you need me 
Or are you saying you would rather be alone? 
Do you want to tell me 
How, when you're around me 
You're scared of taking down a heart besides your own?
