Separation is for high school kids Baby we're both grown adults I don't wanna see us lose what we have making choices off of impulse Cause baby I love you And I understand the way you feel And baby I trust you And everything that we had was real There's nothing I won't do But I need this time to sort the sides And maybe in time we'll realize what this means So can I count on you? When I'm not so sure of myself Can I count on you? When I don't know where to look for help Can I count on you? When heaven starts to feel like hell Can I count on you? When I'm not so sure of myself It's a give and take and we know that Hard times we don't gotta go back I don't want leave you confused With the love that I've given and the ways that I've shown that But I don't always get it right the first round I don't wanna be the reason I keep you down I don't want to promise you the future And be stuck inside the cycle of emotions that I'm feeling now You deserve so much more than the way I've been treating you lately You've been thrown into the ultimate emotional ringer and baby I know that it's driving your crazy If you could put in just a little more trust then I can show you that I'm doing this for us and When the time feels right to me then I can promise that I'll make this up So can I count on you? When I'm not so sure of myself Can I count on you? When I don't know where to look for help Can I count on you? When heaven starts to feel like hell Can I count on you? When I'm not so sure of myself I understand that we have to live with all the choices that we make I just hope that what we have in love is something that we can still save So can I count on you? When I'm not so sure of myself Can I count on you? When I don't know where to look for help Can I count on you? When heaven starts to feel like hell Can I count on you? When I'm not so sure of myself
