"
Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep, dreaming ´bout 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
on 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 could lie, coudn't I, could lie : " Everything that kills me makes me feel alive "
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
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 could lie, could lie, could lie ...
Everything that drowns me makes me wanna fly
Take that money, watch it burn
Sink in the river the lessons I´ve learned
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, I've been praying hard,
said : " No more counting dollars, we'll be counting stars "
we´ll be counting stars
