Be Mine Tonight
Rocky Loves Emily Lyrics

When we were young
In our youth, before we were burdened by age and responsibilities

We wore hearts on our sleeves
We were open and sincere about our emotions

Innocent and sixteen
We were naive and inexperienced, at the age of sixteen

We were never bothered
We did not worry about the future and enjoyed the moment

By the thought these days
We did not consider that our carefree days would come to an end

Would ever leave
We did not anticipate a departure from our youthful bliss

So we laughed all day
We found joy and amusement in the simple things of life, throughout the day

And we talked all night
We stayed up late engaging in endless conversations, without a care in the world

At the football games
We bonded over shared interests, such as attending games

Under Friday lights
We enjoyed those moments under the glow of the stadium lights, on Friday nights

So young and dumb
We were inexperienced and foolish, but that only added to our experience

We had our fun
We indulged in enjoyable activities, despite their potential consequences

But now these days
As we have grown older, things have changed considerably

Are fading fast
Our youthful days are slipping away rapidly

Let's make this last
We should hold onto the present and enjoy it while it lasts

When we get old
In future years, when we are elderly

We'll look back and we'll laugh
We will recall our youthful days with fondness and amusement

At all the times we had
We will reminisce about the various experiences we shared

When we switched our folders
Our silly exchanges of materials in class, in our school days

On that exam in Mr. Fenton's class
Our memorable exam in Mr. Fenton's class, that we recall now

Or our first kiss on that field trip
Our romantic experience on a field trip we took, when we were younger

We snuck out just like kids
We behaved like mischievous children, when we were adolescents

Instead of watching time go by
Rather than let the moments pass us by without appreciating them

And sit around and wonder why
And later regret failing to have enjoyed them while we had the chance

We never gave it our all
We did not put forth our best efforts in savoring life's moments

When we got it right now
When we had the opportunity to enjoy life in the present

And all the days and night we spent
The many days and nights we passed, living life and making memories

And memories we won't regret
The moments that we hold dear and cherish, and would not undo

So stop wasting the time
We must not waste any more time, but instead begin to live fully

And start living right now, right now
We should start living in the moment now, as we have no time to waste

We won't live like this forever
Our carefree and youthful days are temporary

We could stay like this together
However, we could choose to enjoy the present and stay happy with one another

'Cause I want it
The artist himself personally desires these experiences

And you need it
The artist believes these experiences to be essential to his partner's happiness

So let's live before it's over
They must enjoy the present and not lose the opportunity forever

Be mine tonight
The artist is urging his partner to be his for the night
