[Verse 1]

August afternoon

I can picture you

Walking with your father at your side

In the summer heat

California speaks

Softly like she's making up her mind

[Pre-Chorus]

And now, as I stand beside you I say

[Chorus]

Baby, isn't it crazy that we are born only to die?

Oh, but lately, I've been counting my stars

'Cause I will spend my whole life loving you

[Verse 2]

Through your shining eyes

Sweet like Jeffrey Pines

I pretended I could read your thoughts

Now it's just the truth

Seems our hearts have fused

Soldered like the gold your sister brought

[Pre-Chorus]

And how am I lucky enough to say

[Chorus]

Baby, isn't it crazy that we are born only to die?

Oh, but lately, I've been counting my stars

'Cause I will spend my whole life loving you

[Hook]

Loving you, loving you, loving you

Loving you, loving you, loving you, loving you

[Pre-Chorus]

And I said

[Chorus]

Baby, isn't it crazy that we are born only to die?

Oh, but lately, I've been counting my stars

'Cause I will spend my whole life loving you
