Count the Days

If you don't believe I'm leaving you
Just count the days I'm gone
If you don't believe I'm leaving you
Just count the days I'm gone

Oh, little darling, can't go on this way
Can't take it any longer, not another day
We're fussing and fighting, no meals cooked at night
When we started out, it was sugar and spice
Now your kisses are cold and your arms feel like ice
A man has to have some love and peace in his life
We're frustrated lovers with nothing to gain
Instead of sharing love, we're only spreading pain

If you don't believe I'm leaving you, girl
Just count the days I'm gone
Girl, if you don't believe I'm leaving you now
Just count the days I'm gone

You gave me so little happiness
But a whole lot of misery
When your new love affairs didn't work out right
You came running back to me
And I would take you back faster than you could blink an eye
But today it's all over, no matter how hard you try
And this time, darling, I'm not gonna stay
Get away from the door, don't try to block my way

If you don't believe I'm leaving you now
Just count the days I'm gone
Girl, if you don't believe I'm leaving you now
Just count the days I'm gone

I don't understand you, darling
I don't understand you, darling
I don't understand you, darling
No, I don't understand you, darling

If you don't believe I'm leaving you
Just count the days I'm gone
If you don't believe I'm leaving you
Just count the days I'm gone

Oh, little darling, can't go on this way
Can't take it any longer, not another day
We're fussing and fighting, no meals cooked at night
When we started out, it was sugar and spice
Now your kisses are cold and your arms feel like ice
A man has to have some love and peace in his life
We're frustrated lovers with nothing to gain
Instead of sharing love, we're only spreading pain

If you don't believe I'm leaving you, girl
Just count the days I'm gone
Girl, if you don't believe I'm leaving you now
Just count the days I'm gone

If you don't believe I'm leaving you
Just count the days I'm gone
If you don't believe I'm leaving you now
Just count the days I'm gone
Girl, if you don't believe I'm leaving you now
Just count the days I'm gone
Girl, if you don't believe I'm leaving you now
