Lyrics

It’s off, it’s on
The party’s just begun
Take off, and run
Let’s celebrate the fun of being young
I don’t wanna grow up
I don’t wanna grow up

But when the lights come on
You lift me up, and I feel strong

I won’t be right without you
And I might break without you
I’d rather be poor and happy than rich and alone
I’ll write hit songs about you
No matter how we’ll get through
I’ll keep on singing for a living, but I wanna be in love
And I wanna be with you

I wanna be with you…
Lights off, lights on
The music has begun
More light, you run, and get the bad guy’s gun
I love the songs that you play
And I don’t care what they say
Cause I was born this way

When I hear you scream, I hit the top of the stage and
Close my eyes, I know exactly who I am

I won’t be right without you
And I might break without you
I’d rather be poor and happy than rich and alone
I’ll write hit songs about you
No matter how we’ll get through
I’ll keep on singing for a living, but I wanna be in love
And I wanna be with you

I wanna be with you…
I won’t be right without you
And I might break without you
I’d rather be poor and happy than rich and alone
I’ll write hit songs about you
No matter how we’ll get through
I’ll keep on singing for a living, but I wanna be in love
And I wanna be with you

Wanna be with you, wanna be with you
Wanna be with you, wanna be …

No matter what breaks me, I wanna be, with you
