Counting the Days

There's an ocean of tears The years before our happiness And moving mountains into that ocean Won't make that sadness any less Counting the days towards our new construction Moving mountains by compulsion The impulse that shocks us out of our long term decision I'm counting the days towards our love So far apart in so many ways Like the way five hours feels like forever It's in our hands to make our stands And move these continents together Let's get together He was with you like she was with me More than a best friend, a guiding light But lessons learned and now we have to burn Our fires in the night Counting the days towards our new construction Moving mountains by compulsion The impulse that shocks us out of our long term decision I'm counting the days towards our love Cross the ocean of tears Before the moving mountains disappear
