I want to breathe in the open air
so I can feel alive
if you could take me there
then we could try to find something
to make us fall in love
we'll hit the road in a beat up van
show to show in a pop rock band
we're getting loud loud
make you want to shout shout
the city never sleeps at night

[Chorus:]
Hold up, turn around
we've got stuff to talk about
listen up to the sound
it's something I can't live without
but our dreams
they mean everything to me

I hear a rumor of a west coast dream
where California kids can't help but scream
I hear the east coast is out of control
where everyone is high on rock 'n roll
and that's exactly where I want to be
yeah, so everyone come stand with me
we're getting loud loud
make you want to shout shout
the city never sleeps at night

[Chorus 2x]

[Chorus 2x]
