Counting Down the Days

About Counting Down the Days

"Counting Down the Days" is the second and final single from Natalie Imbruglia's third album, Counting Down the Days. It was considerably less successful than "Shiver" but still managed to keep the album in the charts for some time. It reached number twenty-three in the UK and number fifty-two in Australia. There are two versions of the song: the first one is the album version found on Counting Down the Days, while the second one is the single version found on the CD single. The main difference between the single and album versions is essentially that the single version is shorter, as it does not have a prechorus. The song's lyrics were inspired by Imbruglia's relationship with then-husband Daniel Johns, and the yearning she felt for him while their respective work commitments separated them. They would eventually divorce in early 2008. Johns produced the song. more »

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 doesn't matter

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

I want to travel through time
See your surprise
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 you've 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 every thing about you

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

I want to travel through time
See your surprise
Hold you so tight
I'm counting down the days

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

I want to travel through time
See your surprise
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
I'm counting down the days

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

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 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

A million miles away from here
