Let's dance in style, let's dance for a while 
Heaven can wait, we're only watching the skies 
Hoping for the best but expecting the worst 
Are you going to drop the bomb or not 

Let us die young or let us live forever 
We don't have the power but we never say never 
Sitting in a sandpit, life is a short trip 
The music's for the sad men 

Can you imagine when this race is won 
Turn our golden faces into the sun 
Praising our leaders, we're getting in tune 
The music's played by the madmen 

Forever young, I want to be forever young 
Do you really want to live forever 
Forever -- and ever 

Some are like water, some are like the heat 
Some are a melody and some are the beat 
Sooner or later, they all will be gone 
Why don't they stay young? 

It's so hard to get old without a cause 
I don't want to perish like a fading horse 
Youth's like diamonds in the sun 
And diamonds are forever 

So many adventures couldn't happen today 
So many songs we forgot to play 
So many dreams swinging out of the blue 
We'll let them come true
