"Counting Down the Days" is the second and final single from Australian singer Natalie Imbruglia's third album, Counting Down the Days (2005).

There are two versions of the song: the first one is the album version found on Counting Down the Days, while the second one is the single version found on the CD single.

The main difference between the single and album versions is that the single version does not have a pre-chorus.

The song's lyrics were inspired by Imbruglia's relationship with then-husband Daniel Johns, and the yearning she felt for him while their respective work commitments separated them.
