"Ten" lyrics

"Ten"

Whoever said love is easy, must've never been in love
Sometimes it's a land mine, one wrong step and it blows up
A word, a look, lights a hidden fuse

It's hard to see just what you have when you're seeing red
And easy to do something that you know we'll both regret
Better stop, think, count to ten before I leave

One, I still wanna hate you
Two, three, I still wanna leave
Four, I'm searching for that door
Five, then I look into your eyes
Six, take a deep breath
Seven, take a step back
Eight, nine, I don't know why we even started this fight
By the time I get to ten
I'm right back in your arms again

Words thrown so carelessly, like weapons when we fight
But when they cut too deep, I wanna leave it all behind
I have to count to ten, before I cross that line

One, I still wanna hate you
Two, three, I still wanna leave
Four, I'm searching for that door
Five, then I look into your eyes
Six, take a deep breath
Seven, take a step back
Eight, nine, I don't know why, we even started this fight
By the time I get to ten
I'm right back in your arms again

You can lose what you're not thankful for
I don't want that to happen to you and me
Better count my blessings

One, you still move me
Two, three, send chills right through me
Four, you keep me wanting more
Five, when I look in your eyes
Six, you're my best friend
Seven, that'll never end
Eight, nine, I don't know why
But thank God it happens every time
By the time I get to ten
By the time I get to ten, oh-oh
I can see how blessed I've been

I'd choose you all over again
