I Close My Eyes And Count To Ten 

Bbm Ebm                    Bbm
It  isn't the way that you look
       Ebm                    Bbm
And it isn't the way that you talk
   F#                        Ebm
It isn't the things that you say or do
        F          Bbm
Make me want you so

It is nothing to do with the wine
Or the music that's flooding my mind
But never before have I been so sure
You're the someone I dreamed I would find

         Bb              Eb              F             Bb
It's the way you make me feel the moment I am close to you
                    Eb             F                  D
It's a feeling so unreal somehow I can't believe it's true
    Gm                    D          Eb                      Bbmaj7
The pounding I feel in my heart, the hoping that we'll never part
  B                     F#     Ab           Bb            
I can't believe this is really happening to me

Bbm         Ab               F#
I close my eyes and count to ten
           F                      Bbm
And when I open them you're still here
           Ab              F#
I close my eyes and count again
          F                         Bbm
I can't believe it but you're still here

We were strangers a moment ago 
With a few dreams but nothing to show
The world was a place 
With a frown on its face
And tomorrow was just, I don't know

But the way you make me feel the moment I am close to you
Makes today seem so unreal somehow I can't believe it's true
Tomorrow will you still be here? Tomorrow will come but I fear
That what is happening to me is only a dream

I close my eyes and count to ten...
