Then I'll Count Again Lyrics - Johnny Tillotson

I've always had the upper hand where our love was concerned 

But now you've upped and left me and I think it's time you learn 

If you're not back here in my arms by the time I'll count to ten 

Well I'll wait just a little while then I'll count again 

When you were mine I had you like a puppet on a string 

So now you'd better listen cause I'll tell you one more thing 

If you're lips aren't next to mine by the time I'll count to ten 

Well I'll wait just a little while then I'll count again 

I'll count the lonely hours and days that I was blind 

I'll count the things I'll do to make you change your mind 

I'll give you love and kindness and I'll buy you presents too 

I'll try so hard to always make you happy when you're blue 

So if you're not back here in my arms by the time I'll count to ten 

Well I'll wait just a little while then I'll count again 

Yes I'll wait just a little while then I'll count again
