counting down the days

Because I was tasked with reviewing Natalie Imbruglia's latest album, Glorious, The Singles, I had the chance to revisit her songs that I've since liked. And because of being away from him for three weeks now, one of the songs in the album came to life and hit home. Verbatim. Even if it sounds a tad too mushy.

So this is for him.

You were right
And I don't want to be here if you're gonna be there
Was that supposed to happen?

I'll hold tight
I'll remember to smile
Though it has been a while
And without you does it matter?

There's no room
No place to start
When our souls are apart

I want to travel through time
See your surprise
I'd hold you so tight
I'm counting down the days tonight
I just want to be a million miles away from here
I'm counting down the days

How've you been?
It's just the usual here
And days are feeling like years
And every day's without you

Now I cry just a little too much
When I think of your touch
And everything about you

I feel cold
I'm in the dark
When our souls are apart

I'm counting down the days
I'm counting down the days
I'm gonna be you surprise
I'm gonna hold you so tight

I just want to be a million miles away from here
A million miles away from here
