A codec is a device or computer program capable of encoding or decoding a digital data stream or signal. The word codec is a portmanteau of "compressor-decompressor" or, more commonly, "coder-decoder". A codec (the program) should not be confused with a coding or compression format or standard – a format is a document (the standard), a way of storing data, while a codec is a program (an implementation) which can read or write such files. In practice, however, "codec" is sometimes used loosely to refer to formats.
A codec encodes a data stream or signal for transmission, storage or encryption, or decodes it for playback or editing. Codecs are used in videoconferencing, streaming media and video editing applications. A video camera's analog-to-digital converter (ADC) converts its analog signals into digital signals, which are then passed through a video compressor for digital transmission or storage. A receiving device then runs the signal through a video decompressor, then a digital-to-analog converter (DAC) for analog display. The term codec is also used as a generic name for a video conferencing unit.

Is all the time I can spend with you
Cause you live so far away
1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-12 thousand miles
Is how far I have to get to you
Just to see you smile
Nothing seems to matter
Except the fact
That you'll one day be with me
Nothing seems to matter
Except the fact
That you'll one day be with me
1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-12 hours
Is how long it would take for me
Just to give you flowers
1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-12 calls
Is how many times I'd call you each month
So we can talk about it all
Nothing seems to matter
Except the fact
That you'll one day be with me
Nothing seems to matter
Except the fact
That you'll one day be with me
1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-12 months
Is how long that I'm having to wait
Until you're home to where we're from
1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-12 prayers
Is how many times I pray each night
Cause that's how much I care
Nothing seems to matter
Except the fact
That you'll one day be with me
Nothing seems to matter
Except the fact
