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 faces 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
Doing the wrong thing
I feel something so wrong
Doing the right thing
I could lie, could lie,
could 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
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
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, we'll be counting
stars
I feel the love
And I feel it burn
Down this river every turn
Hope is a 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
I, feel something so wrong
Doing the right thing
I could lie, could lie,
could 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
Baby I been, I been prayin'
hard
Said no more counting
dollars
We'll be counting stars
Lately I've been, I've been
losing sleep
Dreaming 'bout the things
that we could be
But baby I've been, I've
been prayin' 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 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
Dreaming about the things
that we could be
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
Dreaming 'bout the things
that we could be
Baby I been, I been prayin'
hard
Said no more counting
dollars
We'll be, we'll be counting
stars
