The Countdown Lyrics by Eddie Noack

Ain’t the Reaping Ever Done? (1962-1976)

0

[Intro]
The countdown has started
'til my world falls apart

[Verse 1]
I just received the papers
And the sad news I must face
In thirty days, I'll lose you
Unless I contest the case
But I won't try to hold you
If I've lost your heart
And the countdown has started
'til my world falls apart

[Verse 2]
I can only hope you'll change your mind
As I count each lonely day
And as I count all the long, dark nights
All I can do is pray
Then my love will act as lawyer
To step in and take my part
But the countdown has started
'til my world falls apart

[Verse 3]
I've run out of days
So now I'll count the hours, twenty-four
And I'll still be counting minutes
When you walk through the courthouse door
Hoping you won't push the button
That will break my heart
The countdown has started
'til my world falls apart
