Counting Stars by OneRepublic

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 prayin' 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
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
I'm just doing what we're told
I feel something so right
By doing the wrong thing
And I feel something so wrong

By 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 (hey!)

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

Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby, I've been, I've been prayin' hard (hey!)
Said no more counting dollars
We'll be, 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
I'm just doing what we're told
And I feel something so wrong
By 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 (hey!)
Dreaming about the things that we could be

But baby, I've been, I've been prayin' hard
Said no more counting dollars
We'll be counting stars
Lately I've been, I've been losing sleep (hey!)

Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby, I've been, I've been prayin' hard (hey!)
Said no more counting dollars
We'll be, we'll be counting stars

Oh, oh, oh.
Take that money
Watch it burn

Sink in the river
The lessons I learned
Take that money
Watch it burn

Sink in the river
The lessons I learned

Take that money
Watch it burn
Sink in the river
The lessons I learned
Take that money

Watch it burn
Sink in the river
The lessons I learned
Everything that kills me... makes me feel alive
Lately I've been, I've been losing sleep (hey!)
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby, I've been, I've been prayin' hard (hey!)
Said no more counting dollars
We'll be counting stars
Lately I've been, I've been losing sleep (hey!)
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby, I've been, I've been prayin' hard (hey!)
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 learned
Take that money
Watch it burn
Sink in the river
The lessons I learned
Take that money
Watch it burn
Sink in the river
The lessons I learned
Take that money
Watch it burn
Sink in the river
The lessons I learned
