We Are Young
FUN feat. JANELLE MONÁE Lyrics

Give me a second I
I need a moment to gather my thoughts

I need to get my story straight
I need to make sure my explanation is consistent

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

My lover she's waiting for me just across the bar
My significant other is waiting for me nearby

My seat's been taken by some sunglasses asking 'bout a scar, and
Someone is sitting in my seat and asking about a scar

I know I gave it to you months ago
I know I hurt you months ago

I know you're trying to forget
I know you're trying to move on

But between the drinks and subtle things
But with the influence of alcohol and small actions

The holes in my apologies, you know
My apologies are insufficient

I'm trying hard to take it back
I'm making an effort to make it right

So if by the time the bar closes
If the bar is still open later

And you feel like falling down
If you need help and support

I'll carry you home
I'll take you home, I'll be there for you

Tonight
This evening

We are young
We are still inexperienced

So let's set the world on fire
So let's live life to the fullest and without regrets

We can burn brighter than the sun
We can shine more than anything else

Now I know that I'm not
I realize that I'm not the only one

All that you got
All that you have

I guess that I, I just thought
I presumed or assumed

Maybe we could find new ways to fall apart
Maybe we could break up in a different way

But our friends are back
But our mutual friends returned

So let's raise a cup
So let's have a drink

'Cause I found someone to carry me home
Because I have someone to rely on for support

Carry me home tonight (na na na na na na)
Take me home tonight

Just carry me home tonight (na na na na na na)
Simply take me home tonight

The moon is on my side (na na na na na na)
The moon is shining for me

I have no reason to run (na na na na na na)
I have no motive to escape

So will someone come and carry me home tonight (na na na na na na)
Will someone be there to take care of me tonight?

The angels never arrived (na na na na na na)
No divine intervention came

But I can hear the choir (na na na na na na)
But I can hear the singing

So will someone come and carry me home (na na na na na na)
Will someone help me and take me home?

Tonight
This evening

We are young
We are still inexperienced

So let's set the world on fire
So let's live life to the fullest and without regrets

We can burn brighter than the sun
We can shine more than anything else

So if by the time the bar closes
If the bar is still open later

And you feel like falling down
If you need help and support

I'll carry you home tonight
I'll take you home, I'll be there for you tonight
