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 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 feel something so right
Doing the wrong thing
And 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 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
Yeah

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

And 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

Oh, take that money, watch it burn
Sink in the river the lessons I’ve learned
Take that money, watch it burn
Sink in the river the lessons I’ve learned
Take that money, watch it burn
Sink in the river the lessons I’ve learned
Take that money, watch it burn
Sink in the river the lessons I’ve learned
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

Take that money, watch it burn
Sink in the river the lessons I’ve learned
Take that money, watch it burn
Sink in the river the lessons I’ve learned
Take that money, watch it burn
Sink in the river the lessons I’ve learned
Take that money, watch it burn
Sink in the river the lessons I’ve learned

ME RECUERDA CUANDO TODO ERA FELICIDAD

COMO AMO ESTA CANCIÓN, ES LA PRIMERA QUE ESCUCHE DE ESTA BANDA SOLAMENTE ESCUCHABA ESTA, PERO CONFORME PASO EL TIEMPO, FUI ESCUCHANDO MAS CANCIONES DE ELLOS.

This song’s been a long time favourite. This version is so damn refreshing, plus it’s come out right on time when I am about to set out on a possibly life changing venture!

When I was 10 year old This song was published and i am 18 now still blows me like nothing🔥

Ryan, this is a beautiful version of “Counting Stars”. Your voice is very clear, sexy and your tone from a falsetto to a strong bravado and then you took your vocals into a stunning acapella. Simply stunning. We as your fans love you, so energetic ❤😘 Cheers my frien…🍾🥂

Me recuerda a cuando era niña y no habia preocupación ni hambre todo era paz.

Impresionante, no paro de escucharla, te deja cargado de energía para todo el día. Gracias One Republic.

Canciones que permanecerán en nuestra memoria por siempre!!.

I remember seeing them in 2013 at Red Rocks before this song took off. It was my first time there and their first time playing there. I’ve seen them other 8 times since then. I will still see them again the second they do anther show in Colorado. What incredible musicians ❤

You can really see how much fun the band is having playing these songs and that they’re really getting emotions playing in Malibu. Truly magnificent

Amazing as always. This song never gets old. It’s a masterpiece. 🙏

Amo essa música, foi a primeira que escutei da banda, nem tinha internet direito escutava pela televisão e sempre ficava esperando tocar novamente

Aún sigue siendo mi canción favorita son fabulosos 🤗🤗/ It’s still my favorite song, they’re fabulous 🤗🤗

Mi canción favorita desde el 2014, siempre es un placer oírla

Una clásica que jamás se olvida pero nunca ❤️❤️, alguien más recuerda los mejores momentos que vieron con esta bella canción ❤️

ive been listening to onerepublic since i was young, theres always something interesting in every onerepublic’s song, stay cool!

Always a sign of a great band/singer is that they sound as good if not better in the live (unedited) versions of their songs. A lot can be done in the studio to alter and control the sound, not so much in live recordings
