Let's dance in style, lets dance for a while

Heaven can wait we're only watching the skies

Hoping for the best but expecting the worst

Are you going to drop the bomb or not?
G G/F# Em
Let us die young or let us live forever

We don't have the power but we never say never

Sitting in a sandpit, life is a short trip

Some are like water, some are like the heat

Some are a melody and some are the beat

Sooner or later they all will be gone
D/F#
why don't they stay young
G G/F# Em
It's so hard to get old without a cause
Cadd9 D/F#
I don't want to perish like a fleeing horse

Youth's like diamonds in the sun
D/F#
and diamonds are forever

So many adventures couldn't happen today

So many songs we forgot to play

So many dreams swinging out of the blue

We let them come true
