Best of 2016 Medley: Stressed Out / 7 Years / Work / Treat You Better / Can't Stop the Feeling / Closer / 24k Songtext
von Anthem Lights

Wish we could turn back time
To the good old days

It was a big-big world, but I thought we were bigger
Pushing each other to the limits, we were learning quicker
I always had that dream like my daddy before me
So I started writing songs, I started writing stories
Once I was seven years old

Mama sang us to sleep
But now we′re stressed out

Once I was seven years old
My daddy told me

To work, work, work, work, work
He say me have to work, work, work, work, work
He see me do me dirt, dirt, dirt, dirt, dirt
So me put in work, work, work, work, work, work

I won't lie to you
I know he′s just not right for you


All that I wanted from you was to give me
Something that I never had
Something that you've never seen
Something that you've never been (ooh)

I know it breaks your heart
Move to the city in a broke down car (aah)
Four years, no calls
Now you′re looking pretty in a hotel bar and
I-I-I can′t stop (can't stop the feeling)
No I-I-I

I know I can treat you better than he can
And any girl like you deserves a gentleman

So, baby, pull me closer in the backseat of your rover

I can treat you better

We ain′t ever getting older

Nothing I can see but you when you dance, dance, dance
Feeling good, good, creeping up on you
So just dance, dance, dance, come on

Baby, pull me closer

And we'll dance, dance, dance
Ain′t nobody leavin' soon


So put your pinky rings up to the moon
What you tryin′ to do?
Twenty-four karat magic in the air

We ain't ever getting older
