Live While We're Young Lyrics

Hey girl I’m waiting on ya
I’m waiting on ya
Come on let me sneak you out
And have a celebration a celebration
The music up the windows down

Yeah we’ll be doing what we do
Just pretending that we’re cool
And we know it too
Yeah we’ll...

   The girl's father probably objects to her boyfriend (Liam) so he offers to 'Sneak her out'.
   'Just pretending were cool'. Acting cool and having a good time.
   The song is about living life at it's fullest and just having a good toime.

   I Think Its About Teen-Age Boys (Liam,Niall,Harry,Zayn,Louis) Going Out And Having A Fun Time Getting Some Girls And Acting As If They Are Madly In-Love Even Though They Just Met, And Living Live To The Moment(:

   I think this song’s just about getting to actually be teenagers, and having fun. In the music video, you see them on rope swings and in the pool, and I think the music video represents what the song is about. #YOLO
   You Only Live Once, so make it last :)

    I think it's about a boy who just wants to have a amazing night. But what's kinda funny about the song is that liam sings about sneaking out this girl when he's like 20 or 21 right now. :P

    'tonight lets get some' - sex/hooking up
    ' Lets go crazy crazy crazy till we see the sun' - crazy sex
    ' I know we only met but lets pretend it's love' - again, hooking up. (Even though we only met, ur hot and i wanna bang you, so lets just say its love so we can feel better about it)

    This song is so awesome. It is talking about living your life while you're young. Don't wait until you're older, live in the moment!

    This song is about making a girl feel loved. They want to go out with their girl and make the most of the night, not in a bad inappropriate way.

    It's all about a 1 night stand. Just look at the chorus:
    1) Lets go crazy crazy crazy till we see the sun (in the sheets)
    2) I know we only met but lets pretend it's love (Even though we only met, ur hot and i wanna bang you, so lets just say its love so we can feel better about it)
    3) Never never never stop for anyone (we're gonna power through the night and make the most of it)
    4) Tonight lets get some (tonight let's go out and find a hot chic who wants a bang)
    5) And live while we're young (Coz ya know... YOLO)
