The Countdown

8 billion people in the world, 8 billion people with a soul, and I want yours 
7 months we had of pure love, 7 days a week, we were connected by the phone 

6 times I tried to let you go, but my heart just couldn’t say no
5 minutes without you felt like an eternity 
And I can’t count the days I cry before going to sleep 

Maybe in another life we will be forever and ever
If it’s not in this world, I will find a way to be together 

4 seasons passed, but my love remains 
3 words I couldn’t say, and I won’t deny

2 hearts beating as one under the same light 
1 love story written in the stars 
Looking at us from the sky 

0 regrets, just memories that shine
I’m another life, you will always be mine
Every moment with you felt so right 
No distance can keep us apart 
So in the stars we will be reunited
