Counting Stars

Lyrics

Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
 Dreaming about the things that we could be
 But baby, I've been, I've been praying hard
 Said, "No more counting dollars, we'll be counting stars"
 Yeah, we'll be counting stars
 ♪
 I see this life, like a swinging vine
 Swing my heart across the line
 And in my face is flashing signs
 Seek it out and ye shall find
 Old, but I'm not that old
 Young, but I'm not that bold
 And I don't think the world is sold
 On just doing what we're told
 I feel something so right
 Doing the wrong thing
 And I feel something so wrong
 Doing the right thing
 I couldn't lie, couldn't lie, couldn't lie
 Everything that kills me makes me feel alive
 Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
 Dreaming about the things that we could be
 But baby, I've been, I've been praying hard
 Said, "No more counting dollars, we'll be counting stars"
 Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
 Dreaming about the things we could be
 But baby, I've been, I've been praying hard
 Said, "No more counting dollars, we'll be, we'll be counting stars"
 Yeah, yeah
 I feel your love, and I feel it burn
 Down this river, every turn
 Hope is our four-letter word
 Make that money, watch it burn
 Old, but I'm not that old
 Young, but I'm not that bold
 And I don't think the world is sold
 On just doing what we're told
 And I feel something so wrong
 Doing the right thing
 I couldn't lie, couldn't lie, couldn't lie
 Everything that drowns me makes me wanna fly
 Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
 Dreaming about the things that we could be
 But baby, I've been, I've been praying hard
 Said, "No more counting dollars, we'll be counting stars"
 Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
 Dreaming about the things that we could be
 But baby, I've been, I've been praying hard
 Said, "No more counting dollars, we'll be, we'll be counting stars"
 Oh, take that money, watch it burn
 Sink in the river the lessons I've learned
 Take that money, watch it burn
 Sink in the river the lessons I've learned
 Take that money, watch it burn
 Sink in the river the lessons I've learned
 Take that money, watch it burn
 Sink in the river the lessons I've learned
 Everything that kills me makes me feel alive
 Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
 Dreaming about the things that we could be
 But baby, I've been, I've been praying hard
 Said, "No more counting dollars, we'll be counting stars"
 Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
 Dreaming about the things that we could be
 But baby, I've been, I've been praying hard
 Said, "No more counting dollars, we'll be, we'll be counting stars"
 Take that money, watch it burn
 Sink in the river the lessons I've learned
 Take that money, watch it burn
 Sink in the river the lessons I've learned
 Take that money, watch it burn
 Sink in the river the lessons I've learned
 Take that money, watch it burn
 Sink in the river the lessons I've learned
 
 Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
 Dreaming about the things that we could be
 But baby, I've been, I've been praying hard
