Counting Stars Lyrics

Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But, baby, I've been, I've been praying 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
And 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
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
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
But, 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
But, 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 a four-letter word
Take 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
I'm 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
But, 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
But, baby, I've been, I've been praying hard
Said, no more counting dollars
We'll be, we'll be counting stars

Take that money
Watch it burn
Sink in the river
The lessons are learn

Take that money
Watch it burn
Sink in the river
The lessons are learn

Take that money
Watch it burn
Sink in the river
The lessons are learn

Take that money
Watch it burn
Sink in the river
The lessons are learn

Everything that kills me...
...makes feel alive

Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But, baby, I've been, laughin, 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
But, baby, I've been, I've been praying hard
Said, no more counting dollars
We'll be, we'll be, counting stars

Take that money
Watch it burn
Sink in the river
The lessons are learnt

Take that money
Watch it burn
Sink in the river
The lessons are learnt

Take that money
Watch it burn
Sink in the river
The lessons are learnt

Take that money
Watch it burn
Sink in the river
The lessons are learnt

I think this song could be interpreted to have a couple different meanings, but I do think the view abot doing your dream for your dreams-instead of your money is the correct view. I really like this song, and LOVE when it comes on the radio! It has a GREAT beat abd is SUPER CATCHY!

the true meaning of this song is that people instead of following their dreams are way too ambitious to fight for the money. People who are just doing what they are told and do not question the real world is literally succumbed to evil caged inside. Song is suggesting that the true happiness will inevitably come when we decide to chase our dreams instead of chasing money.

I believe this song is about hopes and dreams that two people want to include one another. I think the song is well writen and posesses a great beat for dancing and singing. I think that whatever this song means is a really deep answer as tjis song sounds very emotional.
