Looked at the clock just a second ago
Seemed like a year went by
Can’t keep my mind on nothing else
I put my head in my hands and sigh
Oh Baby what you do to me
I don’t know if I’m coming or going (You got me…)

CHORUS
Counting the hours ‘til I’m next to you
Counting the hours
Counting the hours don’t know what to do
Counting the hours

I drink a dozen cups of coffee
I find I’m sittin’ by the phone
I walk around in a daze
My time is not my own
Oh Baby what you do to me
I don’t know if I’m coming or going (You got me…)

CHORUS

BRIDGE
My concentration flew out the window
My attention span is gone
Sometimes I don’t even know my name
Tell me how long can this go on?

I know you’ll be waiting when I get off work
But it doesn’t help me bide my time
Every minute we’re apart cuts me like a knife
This better be part of some grand design
Oh Baby what you do to me
I don’t know if I’m coming or going (You got me…)

CHORUS
