Countdown

Countdown

Oh, I was 17 when I heard the countdown start
It started slowly and I thought it was my heart
But then I realised that this time it was for real
There was no race to hide. I had to go out and feel
That there was time to kill. And so I walked my way round town
I tried to love the world,
Oh but the world just got me down,
And so I looked for you in every street of every town
I wanna see your face. I wanna. I wanna see you now

Yeah, I wanna see you now.

Oh and so it went, so it went on for several years
I couldn?t stand it, ah! it must be getting near
No, no, you just don?t understand
How many people have seen you in the arms of some other man
I?ve got to meet you, and find you, and take the hand
Oh my God, my God, you?ve got to understand that I was 17
I didnt, didn?t know athing at all
I?ve got no reason, I?ve get no reason at all, oh no.

Oh, the time of my life. oh I think you came too soon
(Yeah, it came too soon then)
Oh and it could, it could be tonight if I ever leave this room
(If I never leave this room now)
Wasting all my time and I won't see the things that get me down
Oh, and the sky is crying out tonight for me to leave this town
(Telling me to leave this town...goodbye...Okay)

Yeah, you can leave me, you can go some other place
You can forget it, yeah, you know that its Okay
Because I own this town, yeah I brought it to its Knees
Can you hear it crying? Can you hear it begging to me "please"
I know it?s coming, so soon now, oh its on its way
Oh no, my God, my God. I can hear them say, hey say I can't survive,
They say I?ll never leave the ground, They say its all a lie
and now, and now its coming down, oh baby now please...

(Chorus)

Its okay, you don?t have to care, really, really I swear,
No, no, you owe me nothing, you owe nothing to me
Oh and if I messed it up baby, that?s all up to me, yeah,
And if you go then I won?t follow, no... no...
So many times I?ve been thinking I been thinking maybe I should
No. I?m gonna stay, I'm gonna make my way
I'm gonna get on through babe
I'm gonna make it some day
(Chorus)
I?m gonna leave this town
I?m never gonna hang around
The sky and stars and God will never ever laugh
Me and moon and stars are falling down.
