about

We all miss a good party right now, don't we?
Singing ‘til our lungs give out, dancing ‘til the morning light!

'Wild and Young' is about missing those spontaneous hangouts with your friends and all the things you used to do together.

It’s been a tough year for most of us, and while it's easy to look back on the good times we had, I think now is the time to start getting excited about the future ahead of us!

I wanna see you dance!

lyrics

The night is cold
But I've been told
You can feel the heat is on
Feel there's something going on

Tonight

The lights turn off
And we turn on
We're no strangers to the night
We've been doing this for all our lives

Take me back to when we were wild and young
Oh, I can see things clearly now
We weren't born to figure out

Make me see the world that we used to know
Singing ’til our lungs give out
Dancing ’til the morning light

I wanna see you dance
I wanna see you move
Just give me a chance
I don't know what to do

Racing down
The open road
I've put my foot right through the floor
Close my eyes, I'm letting go

And I sing for you as you dance and I'm thinking
Oh this can't be true
I felt time stood still with you
Now there's nothing left to lose

Take me back to when we were wild and young
Oh, I can see things clearly now
We weren't born to figure out

Make me see the world that we used to know
Singing til our lungs give out
Dancing til the morning light

We've been on the run
But as long as I remember, I've
Dreamt of coming home

Years they come and go
And I'm still looking back when I
Should be moving on

Take me back to when we were wild and young
Oh, I can see things clearly now
We weren't born to figure out

Make me see the world that we used to know
Singing til our lungs give out
Dancing til the morning light

I wanna see you dance
I wanna see you move
Just give me a chance
I don't know what to do

We were wild and young
