Counting Up The Ways Lyrics

I just want to impress her

So that everyone else is just boring

I hope that it's not an issue

Everything that I say, yeah I mean it

If nothing is forever

I'd have nothing with her

I just need one really good opportunity

To convince her to give me more than

Three strikes to prove it

I don't know if I can do it

I won't quit before at least five tries

Or I'm six feet under the ground

I'm not trying to be clever

Counting up the ways to win her over

I wanna make her so happy

She's bummed out any time

That I'm leaving

And the biggest of her smiles

Only happens when I'm there to see it

If the world comes crashing down

She would still want me around

I know I can be stupid

But she's smart enough to see

Right through it

If nothing is forever

I'd have nothing with her

I just need one really good opportunity

To convince her to give me more than

Three strikes to prove it

I don't know if I can do it

I won't quit before at least five tries

Or I'm six feet under the ground

I'm not trying to be clever

Counting up the ways to win her over

I'll probably choke on all the words

Say something that's quite absurd

Racking my brains trying to find a way

To be her nothing more

I just need one really good opportunity

To convince her to give me more than

Three strikes to prove it

I don't know if I can do it

I won't quit before at least five tries

Or I'm six feet under the ground

I'm not trying to be clever

Counting up the ways to win her over
