Young Forever
Michael Canitrot Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Just turned twenty two
Living like we on the run
We can tell a story
Of our days before the sun

Under a millions lights
Over a thousand lifetimes
I wanna be forever young

Lets' catch all the stars together
Cuz we won't be young forever
We won't be young forever

Lets' catch all the stars together
Cuz we won't be young forever
We won't be young forever

Believing that we're dreaming
And the world is not enough
Oh Oh
The promise that we're keeping
'Cause we only live once
Oh Oh

Under a millions lights
Over a thousand lifetimes
And I wanna be forever young

Lets' catch all the stars together
Cuz we won't be young forever
We won't be young forever
Lets' catch all the stars together
Under a millions lights
Cuz we won't be young forever
We won't be young forever

Under a millions lights
Over a thousand lifetimes
We won't be young forever




We won't be young forever
Oh Oh
