Who's Counting

Searching for something to which I can relate Standing in a long line at the third departure gate You're first or you're last it's still hurry up and wait Crossing the ocean ain't no ordinary thing Five thousand miles on a gigantic missile with wings One minute to take off and the captain bell dings I've got three three decades as Sue and Jim's daughter And it's been four years four years I've been singing in the halls We've shared two two anniversaries together But who's counting babe who's counting the tallies on the wall Who's counting baby who's counting anything at all We try to be right we try to be good we try to be strong It's never enough it's always too much and there's still something wrong And yet in the meantime we just keep moving along Instrumental It's been one one entire life of miscalculations And so many times so many times that I've dropped the ball We don't know how many days we have here that we're not promised So who's counting babe who's counting the things that might befall Who's counting baby who's counting anything at all Who's counting anything at all Who's counting anything at all Vocalizing Who's counting who's counting anything at all Vocalizing
