Oh I want every second of the minutes in the hours of these daysnCause there's too many trees to climb nAnd secret spots to find down by the lakenOh the fireflies are out and momma's calling nownnWe can't go to sleep cause we'll wake up oldernWe can't let these nights steal away half our livesnnAnd we will spend our days finding helpless competition to defeatnYeah we'll chase away the girls and pretend nthat we don't want 'em on our streetnYeah the sun is running toonBeing chased off by the moon nAnd we should go to bed but we'll catch fireflies insteadnnWe can't go to sleep cause we'll wake up oldernWe can't let these nights steal awaynAnd I don't want these days to ever be overnWe can't let these nights just steal awaynnOh just stay awake with menWon't you stay awake with menOh stay awake with mennWe can't go to sleep cause we'll wake up oldernWe can't let these nights steal awaynAnd I don't want these days to ever be overnWe can't let these nights steal away half our lives
