'Counting Stars' (Live At The Jingle Bell Ball 2014)
[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
