So here I go and there you went, again
Just another stupid thing that I done wrong.
Locked up in my head, knocked down, beaten, left for dead
With all those brilliant things I should have said.
I gotta get away, and find something to do
'Cause everything I hear, everything I see, reminds me of you.

Still counting the days I've been without you 1, 2, 3, 4
Still counting the days that you've been gone.
Day one, was no fun.
Day two, I hated you.
By day three I wish you'd come right back to me.
Day four, five and six, well I guess you just don't give a shit.
Day seven, this is hell. this is hell.
I gotta get away, and find something to do.
But everything I hear, everything I see, reminds me of you.

Still counting the days I've been without you 1, 2, 3, 4
Still counting the days that you've been gone.
Still counting the days since you left me. 1, 2, 3 ,4
Still counting the days since you've been gone.

A thousand things I want to say to you, but its too late now.
A thousand things I want to say
A thousand things I want to say to you, but its too late now.
A thousand things I want to say

Still counting the days I've been without you.
Still counting the days that you've been gone.
Still counting the days I've been without you 1, 2, 3, 4
Still counting the days that you've been gone.
Still counting the days since you left me 1, 2, 3, 4
Still counting the days that you've been gone.
Gone
Gone
Gone
Gone

    General Comment:Personally, I can see how this song can relate to issues of breaking up and what not, but to me personally,
    it will always remind me of my best friend who's no longer with us. Yes, I'm still counting the days I've been without him. Remember going through all the stages of grief, being angry, wishing he was back here with us. And yes, everything i hear and see reminds me of him.

    Fantastic song. Puts a smile on my face and helps me remember him the way the loved ones need to be remembered: the way they lived. Brilliant.

    General Comment:well this is obvious- its about getting over someone, after a breakup. and the hurt and anger you feel afterwards. and you still live in the tiniest bit of hope that you'll get back together.
