Counting Stars
When I needed you
You were there for me, darling
When I thought of you
Light washed away all the dark
Well the hardest part for me about how we got to here
Was the gravel road that lead us to where we are
Now we’re lying here
And staring at the sky
Just counting stars
If I called for you
Would you tell me I was your only love?
And if we make it through
Could it still feel like the start?
Well the road we took it turned in all directions
And when it wasn’t smooth it was breaking both our hearts
Now we’re lying here
And staring at the sky
Just counting stars
If I get tired
Would you stay by my side
If we get lost
No matter what the cost
I’ll be with you
When we were young
We didn’t know what the answer was
Breaking the rules
Adventurous souls getting caught
But as we get along in years it gets much clearer
It’s the simple things that always fill your heart
Like lying here
Just staring at the sky
And counting stars
When I get tired
Would you stay by my side
If we get lost
No matter what the cost
While time goes by
If we both question why
Through cold and frost
No matter what the cost
I’ll be with you
