Counting Stars lyrics by OneRepublic.
"Counting Stars" by OneRepublic is listed #9 in the Hot 100 Billboard charts.
Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
最近我失眠了
Dreaming about the things that we could be
梦着我们应该做的事
But baby, I've been, I've been praying hard,
但是,宝贝 我努力地祈祷
Said, no more counting dollars
祈祷别再只有数钱 (指向钱看齐的社会)
We'll be counting stars, yeah we'll be counting stars
我们可以改成数天上的星星
I see this life like a swinging vine
我把生活看作蔓延的藤蔓
Swing my heart across the line
把我的心束缚住
And my face is flashing signs
我的脸上透露出某种讯号
Seek it out and you shall find
仔细探寻你就会发现
Old, but I'm not that old
说我老 但我并非那样老态龙钟
Young, but I'm not that bold
说我年轻 但我并非那样勇往直前
I don't think the world is sold
我想这世界并非被出卖了
I'm just doing what we're told
我只是遵循着大家所说的那样办事
I feel something so right
我内心知道怎样才是对的
Doing the wrong thing
但我作著错的事
I feel something so wrong
我感到某件事是错的
Doing the right thing
但我说服自己这样是对的
I could lie, coudn't I, could lie
我应该可以欺骗自己 骗过自己
Everything that kills me makes me feel alive
所有令我挫折的事都让我感觉活着
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
我感受到火热的爱情
Down this river, every turn
每次都陷入这爱情的河
Hope is a four-letter word
希望只不过是纸上的两个字
Make that money, watch it burn
赚了大把的钱再看它燃烧殆尽
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
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
不要管那些钱财了
Watch it burn
烧毁它吧
Sink in the river
把它撒向河流
The lessons are learned
我因此上了一课
Take that money
Watch it burn
Sink in the river
The lessons are learned
Take that money
Watch it burn
Sink in the river
The lessons are learned
Take that money
Watch it burn
Sink in the river
The lessons are 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
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 learned
Take that money
Watch it burn
Sink in the river
The lessons are learned
Take that money
Watch it burn
Sink in the river
The lessons are learned
Take that money
Watch it burn
Sink in the river
The lessons are learned
