1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-12 days
Is all the time I can spend with you
Cause you live so far away
1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-12 thousand miles
Is how far I have to get to you
Just to see you smile

Nothing seems to matter
Except the fact
That you'll one day be with me
Nothing seems to matter
Except the fact
That you'll one day be with me

1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-12 hours
Is how long it would take for me
Just to give you flowers
1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-12 calls
Is how many times I'd call you each month
So we can talk about it all

Nothing seems to matter
Except the fact
That you'll one day be with me
Nothing seems to matter
Except the fact
That you'll one day be with me

1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-12 months
Is how long that I'm having to wait
Until you're home to where we're from
1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-12 prayers
Is how many times I pray each night
Cause that's how much I care

Nothing seems to matter
Except the fact
That you'll one day be with me
Nothing seems to matter
Except the fact
That you'll one day be with me
