Counting Stars

by The Countdown Kids

Lyrics
Lately, I been, I been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby, I been, I 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
I don't think the world is sold
I'm just doing what we're told

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

Lately, I been, I been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby, I been, I been praying hard
Said no more counting dollars
We'll be counting stars
Lately, I been, I been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby, I been, I been praying hard
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
I don't think the world is sold
I'm just doing what we're told

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

Lately, I been, I been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby, I been, I been praying hard
Said no more counting dollars
We'll be counting stars
Lately, I been, I been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby, I been, I 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 are learnt
Take that money, watch it burn
Sink in the river the lessons are learnt
Take that money, watch it burn
Sink in the river the lessons are learnt
Take that money, watch it burn
Sink in the river the lessons are learnt
Everything that kills me makes me feel alive

Lately, I been, I been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby, I been, I been praying hard
Said no more counting dollars
We'll be counting stars
Lately, I been, I been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby, I been, I 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 are learnt
Take that money, watch it burn
Sink in the river the lessons are learnt
Take that money, watch it burn
Sink in the river the lessons are learnt
Take that money, watch it burn
Sink in the river the lessons are learnt
