Counting Stars
Lately I been, I 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
Yeah, we'll be counting stars
I see this life
Like a swinging vine
Swing my heart across the line
In my face is flashing signs
Seek it out and you 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
And 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 been, I been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
Baby, I been, I been praying hard
Said no more counting dollars
We'll be counting stars
Ooooh You take the clothes off my back
And I let you
You'd steal the food right out my mouth
And I watch you eat it
I still don't know why
Why I love it so much
Ooooooh yeah
You curse my name
In spite to put me to shame (I been losing sleep)
Have my laundry in the streets
Dirty or clean
Give it up for fame
And I still don't know why (baby I been, I've been praying hard)
Why I love it so much
Said no more counting dollars, we'll be counting stars
And baby
It's amazing I'm in this maze with you
I just can't crack your code
One day you screaming you love me loud
The next day you're so cold
One day you're here, one day you're there, one day you care
You're so unfair
Sipping from your cup till it runneth over,
Holy Grail, holy grail ooooh!
Holy grail
And we all just entertainers
And we're stupid, and contagious
Now we all just (said no more counting dollars)
Entertainers (said no more counting dollars)
And we're stupid (said no more counting)
Oh! I been praying
And we all just entertainers
And we're stupid, and contagious
Now we all just (said no more counting dollars)
Entertainers (said no more counting dollars)
And we're stupid (said no more counting)
Oh! I been praying
I'll be praying, we'll be counting...
