I'm Counting on You
Counting on Love: A Melodic Journey of Romance with Olivia Newton-John & Johnny O'Keefe
Lyrics
I'm counting on you
The speaker is relying on someone.
Ever since we met darling I've been keeping score
Since meeting, the speaker has been mentally noting their interactions.
Everyday I count your charms
The speaker appreciates the positive qualities of the person every day.
Every day I love you more
The speaker's affection for the person grows consistently.
It's plain to see why you're the lover I waited for
The person matches the speaker's ideal partner.
I'm counting the different ways you melt me
The speaker counts various ways the person affects them emotionally.
Your smile your voice your touch
Specific aspects of the person's presence (smile, voice, touch) are significant.
I'm counting the little things you tell me
Noting the importance of small gestures or words from the person.
That move me oh sdo much
These small things deeply move the speaker.
I'm counting your kisses and caresses
The speaker values physical affection (kisses and caresses).
And cause I thrill as I do
The affection received thrills the speaker.
For I'm counting on you
The speaker's hope and reliance are placed on this person.
I'm counting the hours since I found you
Time spent since meeting this person is being counted.
The days and nights divine
The days and nights with this person are seen as divine or wonderful.
I'm counting the dreams I built around you
The dreams and aspirations are centered around the person.
Because your love is mine
The speaker believes they possess the love of the person.
I'm counting on happiness forever
There's a strong hope for eternal happiness with this person.
Oh lover always be true
Desire for the person to always remain faithful.
For I'm counting on you
Restating the reliance on this person.
I'm counting on you
Reiteration of the central theme: dependence and trust on this individual.
I'm counting on you
-I'm counting on you
