Lyrics for Counting Stars
Dreaming in gold In gold and in green Rolling hills and woodland And places in between The rain setting in As autumn follows summer The order of things Day turns into night Earth spinning round and round From darkness to light Facing the sky Watching the sunset And moonrise Underneath the heavens counting stars and distant worlds Gleaming like a hint of something Gold set in the earth Just out of reach The hope that remains But all things turn full circle And come around again Winter to spring Snowfall to sunshine Underneath the heavens counting stars and distant worlds Gleaming like a hint of something Gold set in the earth Lay bare your heart Let in the light And then, outrun your fear Put it out of sight You can choose any path But aim for the heights While you make good your words Make all you touch seem right Underneath the heavens counting stars and distant worlds Gleaming like a hint of something Gold set in the earth
