Count Me Twice 2 (Version 2)

Intro

Let me count you twice

Verse

Fingers tracing the edge of your shoulder blade

Bare feet slipping on the wet asphalt shade

Your laughter is a low hum under my chest

Counting every second we can't get less

Paper clips in the streetlight, falling slow

Every single one lands exactly where it's s'posed to go

Chorus

So let me count you twice

Double time, double mind

I don't want this night to leave

Just keep on counting, hold on tight

So let me count you twice

Once for the spark that started the fire in my chest

And once for every single second we can't forget

Verse

Neon lights reflected off the raindrops on your skin

The sound of dripping water is the only clock I need to win

You take two steps back and I match them with ease

Every step behind means you're dancing twice as hard in these

Kissing me under streetlights that hum a secret tone

Counting up the moments we can't call our own

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it building underneath the pavement tonight?

Is this what they mean by 'counting stars'?

Just give me your hand, let's count this till it breaks apart

Let me count you twice before we ever have to part

Chorus

So let me count you twice

Double time, double mind

I don't want this night to leave

Just keep on counting, hold on tight

So let me count you twice

Once for the spark that started the fire in my chest

And once for every single second we can't forget

Bridge

Two of us standing under one light

Same four corners, same city night

I don't need a clock when I've got your hand in mine

Counting up the seconds till we lose track of time

Not a countdown – just two hearts beating as one

I'd count forever if you let me start again

Chorus

So let me count you twice

Double time, double mind

I don't want this night to leave

Just keep on counting, hold on tight

So let me count you twice

Once for the spark that started the fire in my chest

And once for every single second we can't forget
