One Direction Lyrics

"Live While We're Young"

[Liam:]
Hey girl I'm waiting on ya, I'm waiting on ya
Come on and let me sneak you out
And have a celebration, a celebration
The music up, the windows down

[Zayn:]
Yeah, we'll be doing what we do
Just pretending that we're cool and we know it too (know it too)
Yeah, we'll keep doing what we do
Just pretending that we're cool, so tonight

[All:]
Let's go crazy, crazy, crazy 'til we see the sun
I know we only met but let's pretend it's love
And never, never, never stop for anyone
Tonight let's get some and live while we're young
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (and live while we're young)
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Tonight let's get some

[Harry:]
And live while we're young

[Zayn:]
Hey girl it's now or never, it's now or never
Don't overthink, just let it go
And if we get together, yeah get together
Don't let the pictures leave your phone (oh oh)

[Niall:]
Yeah, we'll be doing what we do
Just pretending that we're cool, so tonight

[All]
Let's go crazy, crazy, crazy 'til we see the sun
I know we only met but let's pretend it's love
And never, never, never stop for anyone
Tonight let's get some and live while we're young
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (wanna live while we're young)
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Tonight let's get some

[Harry:]
And live while we're young

[Zayn:]
And girl, you and I
We're about to make some memories tonight

[Louis:]
I wanna live while we're young
We wanna live while we're young

[All:]
Let's go crazy, crazy, crazy 'til we see the sun
I know we only met but let's pretend it's love
And never, never, never stop for anyone
Tonight let's get some and live while we're young

Crazy, crazy, crazy 'til we see the sun
I know we only met but let's pretend it's love
And never, never, never stop for anyone
Tonight let's get some and live while we're young

Wanna live, wanna live, wanna live while we're young
(C'mon, young) wanna live, wanna live (wanna live while we're young)
Wanna live, wanna live, wanna live while we're young
Tonight let's get some

[Zayn:]
And live while we're young

The lead single from their second studio album, it was released by Syco Records on the 28th of September 2012.

The opening guitar riff on this track somewhat resembles The Clash's 1982 single "Should I Stay or Should I Go?".

This song was a commercial success, becoming a top-ten hit in fifteen countries, while topping the charts in New Zealand and Ireland.

"Live While We're Young" debuted at number three on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the United States, making the second-highest debut among all UK acts. Only Elton John's number-one arrival with "Candle in the Wind 1997" has started better.

The accompanying music video was officially released on the 20th of September 2012, four days earlier than the intended release date because of an unauthorized Internet leak.

Pepsi used this track for a television commercial in the USA.

This song was performed on an episode of the fourth season of the musical Glee.
