| Long may the sun shine on you | |
| Long may the rain fall on me | |
| I'm having trouble in my head | |
| It comes form the things you said | |
| Now I'm counting down the days | |
| I never told you half the truth | |
| I'd always tiptoed through your room | |
| I can't be sorry for what I've done | |
| I couldn't spoil the fun | |
| Now I'm counting down the days | |
| I'll be counting down the days | |
| And the ocean holds no clues | |
| (The ocean holds no clues for you) | |
| And that plane overhead could be taking you away | |
| I haven't always been this cold | |
| Before the news grows old | |
| I'll be counting down the days | |
| I'll be counting down the days |
