LYRICS
Give me a second I,
I need to get my story straight
My friends are in the bathroom getting higher than the Empire State
My lover she's waiting for me just across the bar
My seat's been taken by some sunglasses asking bout a scar,
And I know I gave it to you months ago
I know you're trying to forget
But between the drinks and subtle things
The holes in my apologies, you know
I'm trying hard to take it back
So if by the time the bar closes
And you feel like falling down
I'll carry you home

Tonight
We are young
So let's set the world on fire
We can burn brighter than the sun

Tonight
We are young
So let's set the world on fire
We can burn brighter than the sun

Now I know that I'm not
All that you got
I guess that I, I just thought
Maybe we could find new ways to fall apart
But our friends are back
So let's raise a glass
'Cause I found someone to carry me home

Tonight
We are young
So let's set the world on fire
We can burn brighter than the sun

Tonight
We are young
So let's set the world on fire
We can burn brighter than the sun

Carry me home tonight
Just carry me home tonight
Carry me home tonight
Just carry me home tonight

The moon is on my side
I have no reason to run
So will someone come and carry me home tonight
The angels never arrived
But I can hear the choir
So will someone come and carry me home

Tonight
We are young
So let's set the world on fire
We can burn brighter than the sun

Tonight
We are young
So let's set the world on fire
We can burn brighter than the sun

So if by the time the bar closes
And you feel like falling down
I'll carry you home tonight

Nates voice is so powerful! Absolutely love him!

[OriginalTechnofied]

Honestly think he has one of the best voices in the music industry that is alive at the moment.

[philipclifton]

HOW Janelle Monáe is not an international MEGASTAR is a f'kin mystery! .. Probably due to integrity and talent. She is bloody amazing!

[HuyNguyen-kwzc]

His voice is powerful and unique. The way he sings this song, can never be replicated. This is a classic that will withstand test of time.

[Iluvrocket]

That guy’s voice is so characteristic and loud that for the longest time, I didn’t even know Janelle was in this song.

[amberlamplabarge]

My little girl used to sing this before she passed away! Wish she could of heard this version!!

[playswithblades]

Almost 12 years later and this song still gets me higher than the empire state.

[celestezepeda]

The little smiles between them are adorable dude..

[crystalwolcott]

Eight years later and Miss Janelle hasn't aged a damn day!

[calvindexter]

What a masterpiece. The kind of song that will never expire . And Janelle’s teeth are out of this world.

[thomasmoore]

The world needs FUN now than ever, 2024

[kimberley]

her skin looks so soft and perfectly clean

[yougonasorry]

0% swearing
0% nakedness
10% music
90% TEETH

[JaneKellie-sigt]

I may be 60 years old. But just because there is snow on the roof, it doesn't mean that the fire in my soul has gone out.
..It Is Eternal Flame

[oliverbasmayormenil]

Underrated artists. Hollywood is a mess, they need artists like these guys.

[GeorgeKostadinov]

You know the singer is good when their live version is the same as the music video :3

[Regum]

I still hear this song in march 2020 because i think “we are young” and miss FUN. So much :(

[Itskadeisha]

First time I’m hearing this version. I’m speechless 😮 Their voices go so well together 🥹

[jeremyr]

I'm in awe of this performance. Their voices blend together so closely it's almost one voice. Perfect pitch and they each hit the runs flawlessly. And the band and everyone is so tight together. Amazing. You can tell they all have so much experience and talent. :)
