Counting Stars

Counting Stars - the Republic

Lyrics by：Ryan Benjamin

Composed by：Ryan Benjamin

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

And I don't think the world is sold

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 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

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

Baby I've been I've 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

Just doing what we're told

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

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

Baby I've been I've been praying hard

Said no more counting dollars we'll be we'll be counting stars
