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
On just doing what we're told

And 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
And 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
And baby, I've been, I've been praying hard
Said, "No more counting dollars, we'll be, we'll be counting stars"

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
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
And 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
And baby, I've been, I've been praying hard (oh oh)
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
You could take that money, watch it burn
Sink in the river the lessons I've learned
You could take that money, watch it burn
Sink in the river the lessons I've learned
You could 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
And 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
And 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 (wa-oh)
Take that money, watch it burn (we'll be counting stars)
Sink in the river the lessons I've learned
Take that money, watch it burn (woo)
Sink in the river the lessons I've learned (woo ooh)
Take that money, watch it burn
Sink in the river the lessons I've learned
