one mississippi (rewrite 1)


count with me
till we reach
the edge of time
with every second
who knows what we'll find
another day of life
nears its nightly end
until the sun comes up
and it starts again

          one mississippi
          two mississippi
          that's all I know
          one mississippi
          two mississippi
          until it's time to go

life starts out
you don't remember
how it began
but somehow time
got a hold of you
and it got out of hand
and it keeps moving
forward and fast
racing through each second
until it has passed

          one mississippi
          two mississippi
          that's all I know
          one mississippi
          two mississippi
          until it's time to go

I want to spend
my time alive
exactly how I live
so much to do
in daily life
so much to take and give
let me spend my days
lost inside your love
there I will stay 
until I've had enough 

          one mississippi
          two mississippi
          that's all I know
          one mississippi
          two mississippi
          until it's time to go
