Counting Stars

Lately I been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby, I been prayin' hard
Said no more counting dollars
We'll be counting stars

I see this life
Like a swinging vine
Swing my heart across the line
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
Just doing what we're told

I feel something so right
By doing the wrong thing
And I feel something so wrong
For doing the right thing
I couldn't lie, couldn't lie, couldn't lie
Everything that kills me makes me feel alive

I been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
Baby, I been prayin' hard
Said no more counting dollars
We'll be counting stars

I feel the 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
Just doing what we're told

I feel something so right
For doing the wrong thing
I couldn't lie, couldn't lie, couldn't lie
Everything that drowns me makes me wanna fly

I been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby, I been prayin' hard
Said no more counting dollars
We'll be counting stars
Lately I been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby, I been prayin' hard
Said no more counting dollars
We'll be counting stars

Take that money
Watch it burn
The lessons I learned
Take that money
Watch it burn
The lessons I learned
Take that money
Watch it burn
The lessons I learned
The lessons I learned
