[Verse 1: Scott]
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 is 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
[Chorus: Mitch]
Tonight
We are young
So let's set the world on fire
We can burn brighter than the sun
[Verse 2: Mitch]
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 cup
'Cause I found someone to carry me home
[Chorus: All]
Tonight
We are young (we are young)
So let's set the world on fire
We can burn brighter than the sun
[Interlude: Kirstin]
Carry me home tonight (Nananananana)
Just carry me home tonight (Nananananana)
Carry me home tonight (Nananananana)
Just carry me home tonight (Nananananana)
[Bridge]
The moon is on my side
There is no reason to run
So will someone come and carry me home tonight?
The angels never arrived
I can hear the choir
So will someone come and carry me home?
[Chorus]
Tonight
We are young
So let's set the world on fire
We can burn brighter than the sun
[Outro: Scott & All]
So if by the time the bar closes
And you feel like falling down
I'll carry you home tonight
