We're Alive Tonight

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You came running with your jacket half-zipped Paper wristband and a laugh on your lips Dust on our shoes, sun on the field One look from you and the whole place feels real [Pre-Chorus] Count it up, one, two, three Take my hand, come close to me When the gates swing wide, we go Everybody ready? Let it roll [Chorus] Hey! We’re alive in the open air Hands up high like we own this square Sing it back till the morning comes Hey! This is ours, every heart, every one Oh-oh, let the whole field sing Oh-oh, hear the crowd come in Hey! We’re alive, we’re alive tonight [Verse 2] Your silver paint is smudged on my sleeve You say, “Stay here,” I say, “Don’t make me leave” A thousand voices catch the same tune And suddenly the world is the size of this room [Pre-Chorus] Count it up, one, two, three Take my hand, come close to me When the gates swing wide, we go Everybody ready? Let it roll [Chorus] Hey! We’re alive in the open air Hands up high like we own this square Sing it back till the morning comes Hey! This is ours, every heart, every one Oh-oh, let the whole field sing Oh-oh, hear the crowd come in Hey! We’re alive, we’re alive tonight [Bridge] If tomorrow calls, let it wait outside We’ve got one more chorus and the whole night wide You and me, shoulder to shoulder, singing Every voice together, every pulse lifting [Final Chorus] Hey! We’re alive in the open air Hands up high like we own this square Sing it back till the morning comes Hey! This is ours, every heart, every one Oh-oh, let the whole field sing Oh-oh, hear the crowd come in Hey! We’re alive, we’re alive tonight [Outro] Oh-oh, we’re alive tonight Hey! We’re alive tonight
