Who can I count on


If I can't count on you


I never counted on you

Makin' me blue


They say your a runnin' 'round


With somebody new

Who can I count on


If I can't count on you



I thought I held a precious key to heaven


Your love was sweet and gentle at the start

But now I feel that I can't go on livin'


If livin' means that we must live apart



Who can I count on


If I can't count on you

There goes my happiness


And here comes the blues


I can't convince myself that

We're really thru


Who can I count on


If I can't count on you



The door to happiness was almost open

Just one more step or two and I'd be in


Then all at once the vows you made were broken


The door to happiness was closed again



Who can I count on

If I can't count on you


There goes my happiness


And here comes the blues

I can't convince myself


That we're really thru


Who can I count on

If I can't count on you


Who can I count on


Who can I count on

Who can I count on

If I can't count on you
