We Are Young Songtext / Lyric

Give me a second, I,

I need to get my story straight

My friends are in the bathroom getting higher than the Empire State



My lover he's waiting for me

just across the bar

My seat's been taken by some sunglasses



asking about a scar, and...

I know I gave it to you months ago

I know you're trying to forget

But between the drinks and subtle things

The holes in my apologies,



I'm trying hard to take it back

So if by the time the bar closes

And you feel like falling down

I'll carry you home



Tonight we are young

So let's set the world on fire

We can burn brighter than the sun

Tonight we are young






So let's set the world on fire

We can burn brighter than the sun



Now I know that Im not

All that you got.

I guess that I

I just thought

Maybe we could find new ways to fall apart



But now our friends are back

So let's raise a cup

'Cause I found someone to carry me home

Tonight (tonight, tonight)

we are young (we are young)



So let's set the world on fire

We can burn brighter than the sun



Tonight we are young

So let's set the world on fire

We can burn brighter than the sun



Carry me home tonight (Na na na na na na)

Just carry me home tonight (Na na na na na)

Carry me home tonight (Na na na na na na)

Just carry me home tonight (Na na na na na)



The moon is on my side (Carry me home tonight) (Nananananana)

I have no reason to run (Carry me home tonight) (Nananananana)

So will someone come and carry me home tonight?

The angels never arrived (Na na na na na na)

But I can hear the choir (Just carry me home tonight)

So will someone come and carry me home tonight



Tonight we are young

So let's set the world on fire

We can burn brighter than the sun

Tonight (tonight, tonight)

we are young

So let's set the world on fire

We can burn brighter than the sun

So if by the time the bar closes

And you feel like falling down

I'll carry you home

tonight
