My Bets On a Long Shot

I count my day until I see you again
A few hours back I found my friends
Every time I see your upset over it
But I'll stay around for more then a minute
Next time I see you here again

Playing the last rites of an old friend
Reminds me that I can't be forgotten
At least love will prevail
Longer then a department store sale
I'll be around when you come back
I'm counting on it

Count the minutes between you and me
Thirty more would kill me deeply
There's my hometown
I wonder if my friends are still around
Times change please don't let me be
My heart begins to sink

Playing the last rites of an old friend
Reminds me that I can't be forgotten
At least time will tell
My heart drawn sleeve you sell
I'm be around when you make it back
Just know that I'm counting on it
