R Tedder:
I see this life like a swingin' 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
I'm just doin' what we're told
And I feel something so right doin' the wrong thing
And I feel something so wrong doin' 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
Dreamin' about the things that we could be
But baby I been I been prayin' hard
Said no more countin' dollars we'll be counting stars
Lately I've been I've been losing sleep
Dreamin' about the things that we could be
But baby I been I been prayin' hard
Said no more countin' dollars we'll be we'll be countin' stars
I feel your 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
And I don't think the world is sold
Just doin' what we're told
And I feel something so wrong doin' 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
Dreamin' about the things that we could be
But baby I been I been prayin' hard
Said no more countin' dollars we'll be countin' stars
Lately I've been I've been losing sleep
Dreamin' about the things that we could be
But baby I been I been prayin' hard
Said no more countin' dollars we'll be we'll be countin' 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
Everything that kills me makes me feel alive
Lately I've been I've been losing sleep
Dreamin' about the things that we could be
But baby I been I been prayin' hard
Said no more countin' dollars we'll be countin' stars
Lately I've been I've been losing sleep
Dreamin' about the things that we could be
And baby I been I been prayin' hard
Said no more countin' dollars we'll be we'll be countin' 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
