When we were young
We wore hearts on our sleeves
Innocent and 16

We were never bothered
By the thought these days would ever leave
So we laughed all day

And we talked all night
At the football games
Under Friday lights


So young and dumb we had our fun
But now these days are fading fast

Let's make this last

So be mine tonight

We won't live like this forever
Be mine tonight
We could stay like this together

'Cuz I want it
And you need it
So let's live before it's over

Be mine tonight

When we get old

We'll look back and we'll laugh
At all the times we had
When we switched our folders

On that exam in Mr. Fenton's class
Or our first kiss on that field trip
We snuck out just like kids


So young and dumb we had our fun


So be mine tonight
We won't live like this forever
Be mine tonight

We could stay like this together
'Cuz I want it
And you need it

So let's live before it's over
Be mine tonight


Instead of watching time go by
And sit around and wonder why
We never gave it our all

When we got it right now
And all the days and night we spent
And memories we won't regret

So stop wasting the time
And start living right now
Right now


So be mine tonight
We won't live like this forever

Be mine tonight
We could stay like this together
'Cuz I want it

And you need it
So let's live before it's over
Be mine tonight
