Lyrics

Counting Every Minute

[Verse 1]

Going to break these chains

Going to set myself free

Going to turn on the mains

Feel the power inside of me

Going to burn all night--going to burn all day

You'll see me coming

From miles away

Feel me in the air

Feel me all around you

Going to show you how I care

Teach you something new

I'm going to take my time

Make love to you

Yeah I know I can satisfy you

That's what I intend to do

[Chorus]

Now I'm counting every minute

Every single minute

I'm calling for you, honey

Come and get it while it's hot

Counting every minute

Ooh I'm living it

I'll make every minute count

Give it everything I've got

[Verse 2]

Feel me getting closer

I'm almost there

Can you feel my fingers

Running through your hair

Can you feel my hands

Draw you closer to me

Can you hear that clock tick, tick, ticking baby

I'll soon be there to set you free

[Chorus]

I'm counting every minute

Every single minute

Don't fool around come and

Get it while it's hot

Counting every minute

Ooh I'm living in it

I'll make every minute count

Give it everything I've got

[Bridge]

Counting every minute

Every single minute

I'm calling for you, honey

Come and get it while it's hot

[Verse 3]

Counting every minute

Oh I'm going to give it

I'll give it to you honey

I'll give you everything

I've got

[Bridge]

Counting every minute[x3]

I'm calling for you honey

Come and get it while

It's hot

[Outro]

I'm counting

Every single minute

I'm waiting for you baby

Give you everything I've got
