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 couldn't lie, couldn't lie, couldn't 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 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

[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

Oh, oh, oh.


[Bridge 4x:]
Take that money

Watch it burn
Sing in the river
The lessons I learned
