Counting Stars
Kate & Anna McGarrigle
Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Every year I think about coming back Seems like so much more Time goes by than that Hard to believe it's all real time I'm sorry I can't be there with everyone on Christmas To help bring in wood for the fire And carry a stack of warm plates To the table where the goose is served I got in damned trouble again It's like every year I get in trouble at Christmas time Is to where I expect in the rain and the darkness of November Leaves me feeling lost and hopeless So I went to a bar by myself to try and forget That I had nothing and no one And I got into a fight with a big loud jock He left me counting stars on the floor Every damn year is the same I say I'll come home Once I got a little more to show for myself Than just getting in trouble We were counting stars on the ski slopes Wearing all our clothes up against winter's snap Scampering up hell to steal a run On the Mohawk toboggan And later on we watched the hockey game With beer and cigarettes And finally we lay down to sleep In the small beds of our childhood Counting stars with the wavy glass Of the old storm windows On the big, long, crazy Mohawk toboggan
