ONEREPUBLIC lyrics : "Counting Stars Cover Mary Desmond"


[Chorus]
Lately I been, I been losing sleep

Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby, I been, I been prayin' hard
Said no more counting dollars

We'll be counting stars
Yeah, we'll be counting stars


[Verse 1]
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 could lie, could lie, could lie
Everything that kills me makes me feel alive


[Chorus]
Lately I been, I been losing sleep (hey!)

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

We'll be counting stars
Lately I been, I been losing sleep (hey!)
Dreaming about the things that we could be

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


[Verse 2]
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

And I feel something so wrong

By doing the right thing
I could lie, could lie, could lie
Everything that downs me makes me wanna fly


[Chorus]
Lately I been, I been losing sleep (hey!)

Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby, I been, I been prayin' hard
Said no more counting dollars

We'll be counting stars
Lately I been, I been losing sleep (hey!)
Dreaming about the things that we could be

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


[Bridge 4x:]
Take that money

Watch it burn
Sink in the river
The lessons I learned


Everything that kills me makes me feel alive

[Chorus]
Lately I been, I been losing sleep (hey!)

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


[Outro 4x:]
Take that money
Watch it burn
Sink in the river
The lessons I learned
