lyrics

one two three four five six seven
I’m counting, on getting to heaven
with you
you know it's true

I can be such a clever fellow
write songs like some write letters
cause I singing to you
only you

one two three four five six seven
there’s no mistaking my intention
with you
there’s nothing to see through
I’ll jump through hoops or do the hoopty-do
turn back flips if you want me to
walk through fire and that pouring rain
anything, babe, you just need to say it

cause I would like nothing better
than for us to get together
dancing
to a brand new tune

one two three four five six seven
I’m counting on getting to heaven
with you
baby it’s true

I may not have a lot of money
but gold and silver never bought much loving
so baby,
what say you
you tell me how high to jump
and I’ll ask you to look up
in the sky as I’m sailing by
who’d have thought love would teach a man how to fly

I can think of nothing better
than for us to get together
singing
a new melody
that goes like this:

one two three four five six seven
we’re counting on going to heaven
together
you know it’s true
just say you do:

do and do do do and do
