Counting On It

[generic techno hits, ad-lib generic style vocal additives] 13, 11, 7 and 9 All souls go to heaven All souls but mine Old souls see the passing The everlasting Turns of time Some souls say the toasting of the moment is the wine The distant sound of thunder Takes me over Takes me under The silent sounds Of passing clouds I can count on any number 12 stances 11 dances 10 and then, you're single again 9 is mine through space and time we meet in the middle and discuss the sublime No wait for 8 7's not far behind 6 picks up sticks, lays them straight and starts a fire 5 is alive and kicking, rolling on the green 4's at the door , knocking to come in 3 is thee ... thee ... thee... 2 is all about , what we can not do without, 1 second .... 1 second .... 1 second ...., Cross the Tyne, nigh the Nile Across the sky and the extra mile Hudson bay, moments a stray Weigh your soul, bare your heart The whispering, in the hedgerow Needs say no more Say no more I know who you are
