arithmetic

Lyrics

i've been staring at the sky tonight, marvelling and passing time, wondering what to do with daylight, until i can make you mine, you are the one i want, you are the one i want, i've been thinking of changing my mind, it never stays the same for long, but of all the things i know for sure, you're the only certain one, you are the one i want, you are the one i want, i've been counting up all my wrongs, one sorry for each star, see i'd apologise my way to you, if the heavens stretched that far, you are the one i want, you are the one i want, i won't find what i am looking for, if i only "see" by keeping score, 'cos i know now you are so much more than arithmetic, 'cos if i add, if i subtract, if i give it all, try to take some back, i've forgotten the freedom that comes from the fact, that you are the sum, so you are the one, i want, when the years are showing on my face, and my strongest days are gone, when my heart and flesh depart this place, from a life that sung your song, you'll still be the one i want, you'll still be the one i want, you'll still be the one i want, you'll still be the one i want
