Whoever said love is easy
must have never been in love
Sometimes it's a land mine
One wrong step
and it blows up
A word
A look lights a hidden fuse
It's hard to see
just what you have
when you're seein' red
And easy to do somethin'
that you know you both
will regret
Better stop
Think
Count to ten before I leave
One I still wanna hate you
Two three I still wanna leave
Four searchin' for that door
Five then I look in your eyes
Six take a deep breath
Seven take a step back
Eight nine I don't know why
we even started this fight
By the time I get to ten
I'm right back
in your arms again
Words thrown so callously
like weapons when we fight
But when they cut too deep
I wanna leave it all behind
Then I have to count to ten
before I cross that line
One I still wanna hate you
Two three I still wanna leave
Four searchin' for that door
Five then I look in your eyes
Six take a deep breath
Seven take a step back
Eight nine I don't know why
we even started this fight
By the time I get to ten
I'm right back
in your arms again
You can lose
what you're not thankful for
I don't want that to happen
to you and me
Better count my blessings
One you still move me
Two three you send chills
right through me
Four
You keep me wanting more
Five when I look in your eyes
Six you're my best friend
Seven that will never end
Eight nine I don't know why
But thank God
it happens every time
By the time I get to ten
By the time I get to ten
Oh I can see
how blessed I've been
I'd choose you all over again
