Count Me Twice and I'll Be Gone (версия 2)

Verse 1

Three AM in a coffee shop light

Your hand brushes mine by the counter height

You order two while I hold one warm

We talk till the steam stops forming on my form

Your smile cuts through all that fog and doubt

And for a second, I'm the man you found

But outside waits a bus with your name

And I know exactly what you're thinking about

Pre-Chorus

Count me twice and I'll be gone

Count me twice and we won't belong

The clock keeps whispering what's at stake

Every heartbeat is another time to break

Chorus

Count me twice and I'll be gone

Forever is a long goodbye, now you're alone

Count me twice and the road gets wide

And the only light that shines in my chest tonight

Is a ghost of what we used to know

Count me twice and I'll be gone

Verse 2

Your fingers touch mine, but just for luck

We keep the distance between us locked

A bus driver's whistle cuts through the hum

And you're gone before I can get this right by then

You hand me a cup with an extra stir

Say 'Take your time', like every good goodbye is hard to hear

I watch the windows fog up on my breath

Wondering if the rest of me is already out there in the mist I left

Pre-Chorus

Count me twice and I'll be gone

Count me twice and we won't belong

The clock keeps whispering what's at stake

Every heartbeat is another time to break

Chorus

Count me twice and I'll be gone

Forever is a long goodbye, now you're alone

Count me twice and the road gets wide

And the only light that shines in my chest tonight

Is a ghost of what we used to know

Count me twice and I'll be gone

Bridge

Maybe every goodbye's just a start

Maybe every end can turn into an art

To find the door before you close it tight

To keep the spark from dying out when morning light

Chorus

Count me twice and I'll be gone

Forever is a long goodbye, now you're alone

Count me twice and the road gets wide

And the only light that shines in my chest tonight

Is a ghost of what we used to know

Count me twice and I'll be gone
