Forever Young
DJ Company Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Let's dance in style, let's dance for a while
Heaven can wait we're only watching the skies
Hoping for the best but expecting the worst
Are you gonna drop the bomb or not?
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
The music's for the sad man
Can you imagine when the race is won
Turn out all the faces into the sun
Praising our leaders we're getting in tune
The music's played by the.. the mad man

[Chorus]
Forever young, I wanna be forever young
Do you really wanna live forever
Forever and ever
Forever young, I wanna be forever young
Do you really want to live forever
Forever young

Some are like water some are like heat
Some are a Melodie and some are a beat
Sooner or later we all will be gone
Why don't we stay young?
It's so hard to get on to another course
I don't wanna perish like a fleeing horse
Youth is like diamonds in the sun
And diamonds are forever
So many adventures couldn't happen today
So many songs we forgot to play
So many dreams swingin' out of the blue
Oh let them come true





[Chorus]

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of DJ Company's song, Forever Young, speak about the desire to live a carefree, youthful life. The opening lines, "Let's dance in style, let's dance for a while, Heaven can wait we're only watching the skies," suggest that living in the moment and enjoying life to its fullest is more important than worrying about the future. The following lines, "Hoping for the best but expecting the worst, Are you gonna drop the bomb or not?" convey a sense of uncertainty about the future and the possibility of imminent danger, possibly referencing the Cold War of the 1980s, where nuclear warfare seemed like a real possibility.


The lyrics continue to delve into the idea of wanting to live forever, with lines like "Let us die young or let us live forever, We don't have the power but we never say never." This could be interpreted as the desire to have control over one’s own destiny, despite the inevitability of aging and mortality. Additionally, the lyrics suggest that music is a powerful force in allowing individuals to feel young and carefree, stating, "The music's for the sad man."


The chorus repeats the phrase "Forever young," emphasizing the central theme of the song, while also questioning if eternal youth is truly desirable. The lyrics conclude with lines about the importance of living life to the fullest, with "So many adventures couldn't happen today, So many songs we forgot to play, So many dreams swingin' out of the blue, Oh let them come true."
