I lived my life one day at a time
Love rarely entered my mind
And if it did, the times were few
I guess I never really counted on you

You lived your life from day to day
Wondering when love would come your way
Wondering when love would set you free
I guess you never really counted on me

Chorus:
And now the time has come to count on me
And I'll count on you thru eternity
When the world has come and gone
You'll still be one that I am counting on

When I met you it never entered my mind
That someday I would call you mine
I don't know what I was thinking of
I guess I never really counted on love

And all the things that we've been through
I never realized how much I love you
Or that someday this is where I'd be
I guess I never really counted on me

Chorus:
And now the time has come to count on me
And I'll count on you thru eternity
When the world has come and gone
You'll still be one that I am counting on

I never realized that all we'd done
Would someday join two as one
It doesn't make sense I guess it never does
I guess I never really counted on us

Chorus:
And now the time has come to count on me
And I'll count on you thru eternity
When the world has come and gone
You'll still be one that I am counting on
