“Stay Together” is about living in the moment by following somebody carelessly wandering through the nightlife with their hookup.
It’s the first collaboration between Noah Cyrus and Grammy winning writer Emily Warren.
[Verse 1]
I drink straight to my head
I went outside to smoke a cigarette
And I shattered my phone on the cement
But I don't give a fuck
Now I'm not making sense
I'm laughing at a joke that I don't get
I'm acting like these strangers are my friends
But I don't give a fuck
[Pre-Chorus]
Yelling at the DJ, "Bro, your shit is boring"
Doing things that I will not regret until the morning
Imma make it rain down, another round is on me
I'm just here for fun and I don't care about the money
(Hey, hey)
[Chorus]
Whoa, oh oh oh
Nothing lasts forever
But wouldn't it be nice to stay together for the night?
Whoa, oh oh
We can do whatever
As long as we're together then we're gonna be alright
Don't leave, just wait
You can tell your friends that you're staying out late, singin'
Whoa, oh oh oh
Nothing lasts forever
But wouldn't it be nice to stay together for the night?
[Verse 2]
Alright, alright, finish your G & T
The Uber's here, so now it's time to leave
Hey, driver could you pass the AUX to me?
Go ahead and turn it up
[Pre-Chorus]
Head out of the window, you could call me shameless
Waving to my people now I'm acting like I'm famous
Tell him take the long way, we could see the sunrise
Damn, you look so pretty when that sunlight hits your blue eyes
[Chorus]
Whoa, oh oh oh
Nothing lasts forever
But wouldn't it be nice to stay together for the night?
Whoa, oh oh
We can do whatever
As long as we're together then we're gonna be alright
Don't leave, just wait
You can tell your friends that you're staying out late, singing
Whoa, oh oh oh
Nothing lasts forever
But wouldn't it be nice to stay together for the night?
[Refrain]
(For the night, for the night, oh yeah)
I drink straight to my head
I went outside to smoke a cigarette
And I shattered my phone on the cement
But I don't give a fuck
(Hey)
[Chorus]
Whoa, oh oh oh
Nothing lasts forever
But wouldn't it be nice to stay together for the night? (stay together)
Whoa, oh oh
We can do whatever
As long as we're together then we're gonna be alright
Don't leave, just wait
You can tell your friends that you're staying out late, singing
Whoa, oh oh oh
Nothing lasts forever
But wouldn't it be nice to stay together for the night?

In an interview with MTV Noah said:
My mom told me it reminds her of when she went to prom. Then after prom, she went out with her friends and had so much fun. I think it’s cool that it’ll bring memories back for people, and then also it will help young people create new memories. My biggest thing...
In an interview with MTV Noah said:
It makes me think of when I snuck out of my house for the very first time and was like, ‘All right, I’m not coming home, I’m going to go sneak out with my friends and go have fun.’
Yes! A clean version does exist. The clean version replaces the swear words with alternate lyrics.
