The Nights We Felt Alive

Let me tell you how it all began
We were just kids those years ago
Living our lives without a plan
We never knew what love would mean for us
We were just young and wild and free
But in time we would grow up

I've always felt so safe there in your arms
Let's get away from here
We'll just take off

And we'll run, and never look back
Let's run into the future
And forget about the past
We only have this life to live
So we won't go to sleep tonight
We'll tell our kids the story of the nights we felt alive

Making memories never felt so true
Singing out the words to every song we knew
We didn't want those summer nights to end
So you held on tight to me, and I took your hand

I've always felt so safe there in your arms
Let's get away from here
We'll just take off!

And we'll run! We'll never look back
Let's run into the future
And forget about the past
We only have this life to live
So we won't go to sleep tonight
We'll tell our kids the story of the nights we felt alive

Maybe if I sing these words just right
You won't have to go tonight...
Maybe if I sing these words just right,
You'll never have to leave my side...

So we'll run, and never look back
Let's run into the future
And forget about the past
We only have this life to live
So we won't go to sleep tonight
We'll tell our kids the stories of the nights we felt alive
