I Count the Years - The Drifters

Ah say yeah yeah yeah, say yeah yeah yeah

Ah say yeah yeah yeah, say yeah yeah yeah

I try to put my arms around you

All because I wanna hold you tight

(To hold you tight)

But every time I reach for you, baby

And try to kiss you, you just jump clean out of sight

(Out of sight)

Oh, I’ve got news for you

Baby, that I’ve made plans for two

I guess I’m just a stubborn kind of fellow

Got my mind made up to love you

Ah say yeah yeah yeah, say yeah yeah yeah

(instrumental)

I’m gonna love you

(Gonna love you in every way)

In every way

(Gonna love you in every way)

I’m gonna love you

(Gonna love you in every way)

In every way

(Gonna love you in every way)

With other girls I’ve wanted

I’ve made it just a moment

With you I’ll share each day

(I'll stay by your side)

Now I know you’ve heard about me

Bad things about me, baby, please let me explain

(Don't you listen to that jive)

Oh, I have kissed a few

I tell you, a few have kissed me too

I guess I’m just a stubborn kind of fellow

Got my mind made up to love you

(repeat and fade):

Ah say yeah yeah yeah, say yeah yeah yeah
