Counting Time

(album: Melodic Therapy 4 The Broken - 2022)

Woke up this morning to a text
I woke up to an empty bed
That empty glass of wine got thoughts flying through my head
Knowing that this time she was way more than upset
I call her phone, no answer
I tried to call her phone, she didn't pick up
Lord knows, I love her, got a lot of love to give her
I sent it in a text, it didn't deliver, woah

Now I'm wondering (Did you do this by yourself?)
Or was it one of them (Or your friends in your ear?)
Like be done with him (Or is there someone else?)
And are you under him?
'Cause I
Counting all the time (Time every tick)
You know you on my mind
So are you coming home? (Baby, come home)

'Cause I been (Oh, I)
Sitting here looking at the clock on the wall
Sitting here looking at the clock, analog
Waiting on you to walk (Through the door)
And I'm
Sitting here looking at the clock on the wall
Sitting here drinking Henny straight out the bottle
Hoping that you walk (Through the door)

Time (More time)
All she ever wanted was mine
Blinded by my greed, I failed to read all of the signs
Love is all she need, forget the Dior and the diamonds
Deep off in mind
Thinking about the thousand times
She said she would leave but this time she wasn't lying
This time she was ready
And she didn't regret it
She left our picture but she didn't forget it

Got me counting every tick, watching the door
(Praying I still got your heart and soul)
Girl are you alone, or in somebody's arms?
(It's killing me to know)

'Cause I been (Oh, I)
Sitting here looking at the clock on the wall
Sitting here looking at the clock, analog
Waiting on you to walk (Through the door)
And I'm
Sitting here looking at the clock on the wall (I'm sitting here, I'm watching every second)
Sitting here drinking Henny straight out the bottle
Hoping that you walk

Promise I can't live without her
God knows I need your loving
And it hurts so bad
That she's gone away
I pray
She'll come back one day
In my life
(Baby I'll be sitting here waiting on you to come home again)
Baby, I'll be sitting here waiting babe
(I won't leave, promise I'll be here to the very end by your side)
Said I ain't going nowhere, oh
Come home to me, baby
