Lyrics The Night Is Young - The Summer Set

The Night Is Young

What happened to the homecoming king?
She thinks about him every September
Woke up from the American Dream
Needing another night to remember
One with magic under the mirror ball
Making memories and love in his car
No, she never wanted to take it slow
Sometimes that’s just how the story goes
Don’t give up when you’re down
Don’t look back on your life like it’s over now
Sure, we’re all gonna die, the time will come
And maybe the old days are gone
But the night is young
«What you drinking?
Son have a seat,»
He said to me and ordered another
He woke up from the American Dream
Alone after the war he discovered
All the ticker tape and the glory fades
Life goes on and nothing gold ever stays
No, he never wanted to take it slow
Sometimes that’s just how the story goes
Don’t give up when you’re down
Don’t look back on your life like it’s over now
Sure, we’re all gonna die, the time will come
And maybe the old days are gone
But the night is young
Yeah, the night is young
Kings and queens and soldiers age
You can see the writing on their face;
Played the pawn in every game
Quintessential as it seems
When you’re looking back at seventeen
Life is but a dream
(Yeah)
Don’t give up when you’re down
Don’t look back on your life like it’s over now
Sure, we’re all gonna die, the time will come
And maybe the old days are gone
Don’t give up when you’re down
Don’t look back on your life like it’s over now
Sure, we’re all gonna die, the time will come
And maybe the old days are gone
But the night is young
Yeah the night is young, oh the night is young
Yeah the night is young
(Yeah the night is young)
