THE COUNT TO TEN WITH ME BOOK TAG + FAVORITE QUOTES
-
These days the lovers trade their places
Dancing all around each other’s chairs
I can see the numbness on their faces
Jealousy fills up their hearts in pairs
So please could I be selfish with your body?
‘Cause I don’t think I could share you with nobodyOh when I have you
I’m gonna brand you with my lips
And all of the world will know that you’re mine now
We’ll never lose faith
‘Cause we’ll never forget this taste
My love has the power to keep the tide downOhh, I’ll get you tied down, tied down
Ohh ill get you tied down, tied downOhh, late at night you’ll hear the screaming echo
But we all pretend we never heard the cries in the daytime
Don’t you worry my touch won’t leave you hollow
I’m never going to let you change your mindOh, when I have you
I’m gonna brand you with my lips
And all of the world will know that you’re mine now
We’ll never lose faith
‘Cause we’ll never forget this taste
My love has the power to keep your tied downOhh, I’ll get you tied down, tied down
Ohh, I’ll get you tied down, tied down
Ohh, I’ll get you tied down, tied, ohh
Ohh, I’ll get you tied down, tied downDon’t be afraid to leave your mark
Give me the scars to remind me
Just how good you are (how good you are)
And if your faith turns into to dark
Pull me closer and know
That it’s enough to keep you tied downOhh, I’ll get you tied down, tied down
Ohh, I’ll get you tied down, tied down
Ohh, I’ll get you tied down, tied down
Ohh, I’ll get you tied down, tied downTied down
OhhSnow moon cuts the river
Into a thousand lights
Dancing for us
Dancing for us
Jasmine on the breeze fills my room
And perfumes my nights
Dreaming for us
Dreaming for usSo don’t worry ’bout it
The seasons were on our side
It was you before all of this
And now it’s you for a life
No, don’t worry ’bout it
The seasons were on our side
Even the greatest ideas
Have a life and dieSummer rain, the sky screams
With the things we can’t say
Speaking for us
Speaking for us
Leaves hang in the wind
On their way to decay
Ending for us
Ending for usSo don’t worry ’bout it
The seasons were on our side
Even the greatest ideas
Have a life and die
No, don’t worry ’bout it
The seasons were on our side
It was you before all of this
Now it’s you for a life(For the first time)
(For the first time)

And I feel it come
Feel it flood my lungs
Cut me into strips
I have come undone
And I feel it come
Feel it flood my lungs
Cut me into strips
I have come undone

Rare is this love
Keep it covered
I need you to run to me, run to me, lover
Run until you feel your lungs bleedingOh but the farrow know
Her hungry eyes, her ancient soul
It’s carried by the sneering menagerieKnow what it is to grow
Beneath her sky, her punishing cold
To slowly learn of her ancient miseryTo be twisted by something
A shame without a sin
Like how she twisted the bog man
After she married himRare is this love, keep it covered
I need you to run to me, run to me, lover
Run until you feel your lungs bleedingBut in all the world
There is one lover worthy of her
With as many souls claimed as sheBut for all he’s worth
He still shatters always on her earth
The cause of every tear she’d ever weepRushing to shore to meet her
Foaming with loneliness
White hands to fondle and beat her
Give her his onlinessRare is this love, keep it covered
I need you to run to me, run to me, lover
Run until you feel your lungs bleeding
Rare is this love, keep it covered
I need you to run to me, run to me, lover
Run until you feel your lungs bleedingRare is this love, keep it covered
I need you to run to me, run to me, lover
Run until you feel your lungs bleeding
Rare is this love, keep it covered
I need you to run to me, run to me, lover
Run until you feel your lungs bleeding -
The flowers wither
And the clouds grow bigger
Up in the garden alone, I’m freezing but it’s fine
‘Cause I’m thinking of you
And all the things we could do
Running as fast as I can, glad I forgot to tie my shoesFalling isn’t really that bad
If it’s for you
Your lips, your blush, your eyes, your touchBaby, you are really something else
‘Cause I don’t think I have smiled like this before
When I spend my time with you it tends to stop
Honey, being around you is all I need
BabyDon’t worry ’bout me
It’s not as cold as it seems
So good to be the one who keeps you warm
These days, we’re all good though we’re walking under clouds, honey
Most of the time
I can’t believe my own eyesLookin’ out, it feels like a dream
Please, stay right here
Your lips, your blush, your eyes, your touchBaby, you are really something else
‘Cause I don’t think I have smiled like this before
When I spend my time with you it tends to stop
Honey, being around you is all I need
Baby -
Did you hear the distant cry
Calling me back to my sin
Like the one you knew before
Calling me back once againI nearly, I nearly lost you there
And it’s taken us somewhere
I nearly lost you there
Let’s try to sleep nowDrag me far enough to know
I’m blind every mile that you burn
There’s a rider that’s fallen and
It’s clear there’s no time to returnI nearly, I nearly lost you there
And it’s taken us somewhere
I nearly lost you there
Well let’s try to sleep nowDid you hear the distant lie
Calling me back to my sin
Like the one you knew before
Calling me back once againI nearly, I nearly lost you there
And it’s taken us somewhere
I nearly lost you there
Well let’s try to sleep now
I nearly lost you there
I nearly lost you
I nearly lost you there
I nearly lost you there
I nearly lost you there
Oh yeah, nearly lost you there -
MORE QUOTES FROM MY FAVORITE BOOKS
I’m the type of reader who never highlight passages or memorize quotes. I would go so far as to say, I never really care too much about them. But sometimes, there are words that capture a moment or emotion so perfectly even my forgetful brain couldn’t help but remember the lines and relive all the feels.
Here are more unforgettable quotes from my favorite books.
-
It’s not my imagination
It’s a no win situation
There’s no way to get away from
From my loveI’ve got you cornered with my devotion
I’ve got you captured by emotion
It’s impossible to go on
Without loveSurrender your heart to me
Surrender your heart to me
Surrender your heart why can’t you see
It’s the only way that it can be
Surrender your heart I don’t know why
But you never give in to meMy decision is a strong one
And I know that I can hold on
How much longer can you go on
Without love -
You are as perfect as all the seven days of creation, god must have loved it
Salt leaves and door screens, blood bed and night screams
I’ll be your safety, if you’ll be my safety
But soon I will try to fly out and leave you
But please don’t believe me, tie weights to my feetI don’t wanna tell you now
I don’t wanna tell you how I know
I don’t wanna break you down
I don’t know if I can take the load of our loveI’m too pop for the basement scene of sludge and drop jaw
But I can’t fit see, I’m faceless but I’m not your dream team
But I fit right in between your legs and your that will hold me, your arms will enfold meI don’t wanna tell you now
I don’t wanna tell you how I know
I don’t wanna break you down
I don’t know if I can take the load of our love -

I didn’t believe in destiny.
I look up, you’re standing next to me –

Love burns brighter than sunshine,
Brighter than sunshine.
Let the rain fall, I don’t care.
I’m yours, and suddenly you’re mine.
Suddenly, you’re mine;
And it’s brighter than sunshine.I never saw it happening.
I’d given up and given in.
I just couldn’t take the hurt again –
What a feeling.I didn’t have the strength to fight.
Suddenly, you seemed so right.
Me and you –
What a feeling.What a feeling in my soul –
Love burns brighter than sunshine.
It’s brighter than sunshine.
Let the rain fall, I don’t care.
I’m yours, and suddenly you’re mine.
Suddenly, you’re mine.And it’s brighter than the sun.
It’s brighter than the sun.
It’s brighter than the sun, sunshine.Love will remain a mystery,
But give me your hand, and you will see.
Your heart is keeping time with me.What a feeling in my soul –
Love burns brighter than sunshine.
It’s brighter than sunshine.
Let the rain fall, I don’t care.
I’m yours, and suddenly you’re mine.
