This is my personal favorite :)
Counting Stars-OneRepublic-Native
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....
(Instrumental)
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
On just doing what we're told
I-I-I-I feel something so right
Doing the wrong thing
I-I-I-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 your 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
On just doing what we're told
I-I-I-I feel something so wrong
Doing the right thing
I could lie, could lie, could 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 I learned (x4)
Everything that kills me, makes me feel alive...
(Chorus)
Take that money
Watch it burn
Sink in the river
The lessons I learned (x4)
Personal Background of this song:
I heard this song on the radio when it was popular multiple times. We were moving to a different state and must have heard this song a thousand times. I grew to like this song and soon it became my favorite song.
This song reminds me of moving to where I live now. Whenever I hear it, it makes me feel younger again. It brings back memories of when we first moved in my house, which was older, and we fixed it up.
I love this song so much. The words make sense and have good meaning. I hope you like it too! 😊
