You remember the drive-thru? Spent my time explaining “Inception” Did what I could to impress you You must’ve seen I was trying? But time flies by We don’t need a reason why Let’s get in the car and start making out Let’s sing our favorite song ‘til our lungs give out And I know we ain’t what we used to be But tonight, let’s pretend that we’re 23 You and me, 23 You remember the 30 Rock? I pretended to say the weather on TV Spent our money on wine and booze But it was for Bryan and Jimmy ‘Cause time flies by Can’t always hit rewind But tonight I swear I’m gonna give it another try Let’s get in the car and start making out Let’s sing our favorite song ‘til our lungs give out And I know we ain’t what we used to be But tonight, let’s pretend that we’re 23 You and me, 23 Yeah, just for the night we go back in time Yeah, just for the night we go back in time Let’s get in the car and start making out Let’s sing our favorite song ‘til our lungs give out And I know we ain’t what we used to be But tonight, let’s pretend that we’re 23 You and me, 23

Rencontre manquée, première sortie Premier faux pas, sans oublier la première nuit On était deux âmes sœurs, deux amoureux, deux amis On oublie parfois de faire une pause et prendre le temps Braver la tempête, se rendre à l’horizon Chanter à tue-tête, se donner des frissons On est loin d’être jeunes mais à jamais fringants Avec toi, le feu reste brûlant Le feu reste brûlant Les voyages, mariages, l’argent Les kids, la job, les amis, les grands-parents Même si on peine à se retrouver On lâche pas pour autant On oublie parfois, la vie ne dure qu’un instant Il faut lâcher prise et s’amuser en attendant Braver la tempête, se rendre à l’horizon Chanter à tue-tête, se donner des frissons On est loin d’être jeunes mais à jamais fringants Avec toi, le feu reste brûlant Le feu reste brûlant On peut faire semblant, reculer le temps Revenir en arrière à contre-courant Braver la tempête, se rendre à l’horizon Chanter à tue-tête, se donner des frissons On est loin d’être jeunes mais à jamais fringants Avec toi, le feu reste brûlant Le feu reste brûlant
