1..2..3..4...
i count the tiles on the ceiling
waiting for you to phone me
i cant stand my feelings for you
i cant stand holding them in
not being able to hold you
and tell you i love you
it kills me a little
but i could never do that
its not that i'm afraid of rejection
no thats not it at all
i could never tell you because..
because i'm scared to lose you
i'm scared to destroy what we have
i've known you to long
to long to ruin it
and if you cant return those feelings
the one thing i hold so sacred
would be gone
so i'll just sit here
and count the ceiling tiles
waiting for you to call....

What'll you do when you've counted them all and the phone still doesn't ring?


I've counted a few in my life.  Wishing you good luck.
