Dusty Springfield — I Close My Eyes and Count to Ten
BbmD#mBbm
It isn't the way that you look
D#mBbm
And it isn't the way that you talk
F#D#m
It isn't the things that you say or do
FBbm
Make me want you so
It is nothing to do with the wine
Or the music that's flooding my mind
But never before have I been so sure
You're the someone I dreamed I would find
BbD#FBb
It's the way you make me feel the moment I am close to you
D#FD
It's a feeling so unreal somehow I can't believe it's true
GmDD#Bbmaj7
The pounding I feel in my heart, the hoping that we'll never part
BF#G#Bb
I can't believe this is really happening to me
BbmG#F#
I close my eyes and count to ten
FBbm
And when I open them you're still here
G#F#
I close my eyes and count again
FBbm
I can't believe it but you're still here
We were strangers a moment ago
With a few dreams but nothing to show
The world was a place
With a frown on its face
And tomorrow was just, I don't know
But the way you make me feel the moment I am close to you
Makes today seem so unreal somehow I can't believe it's true
Tomorrow will you still be here? Tomorrow will come but I fear
That what is happening to me is only a dream
I close my eyes and count to ten...
