I have already seen my future
And it looks exactly like you
And bein' in love is sure 'nough a battle
But I am determined to fight on through
Now some people might consider me a star or somethin'
If loving you is wrong
I'm sorry but right won't do
Yeah, I wanna (live, live, live, live together)
Baby, we can make it but we got to chase it
We got to (ready, ready, baby) live forever
Didn't you know we could live forever? Yeah
I know you see me over here in the darkness
Talk please, stop pretending that you heartless
Okay, okay, okay, alright, okay you win, babe
Could you find a way to forgive me again, babe?
Get on my knees right here on the dance floor for ya
I'll tap dance for tips at the front door for ya
All I'm tryin' to say is forward from this day
I wanna live (live, live, live) Girl (live together)
Baby, we can make it but we got to chase it
We got to (ready, ready, baby) live forever
Didn't you know we could live forever? Yeah
You hear me woman? Oh
What, you don't think I'll make a fool out of myself
In this club this evening, girl? Ooh
You gotta know that (gotta know)
You gotta know (gotta know)
That I love you, baby
(Live, live, live, live together)
Baby, we can make it but we got to chase it
We got to (ready, ready, baby) live forever
Didn't you know we could live forever?
Crazy 'bout you, babe
Yeah, ey
