The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I can be your best friend, I've got good intentions,

but she's got her heart set all over him.

A guy like me? chyeah! she's the prom queen,

and I'm just that someone that she sees.

So put your guard up I don't care,

because this year she's coming home with me.

So tell your friends, yeah don't wait up,

don't wait up it's easy

You've got these hands shakin,

heart racing out of a mess.

And i'ts aching now,

so this holiday just hear me out

We're gonna swing oh!

We're gonna take this city and run.

We're gona fight this fight, and dance all summer long

She cries, I'm forever staying young

And they said kid you'll never make it in this town whoa oh

and it's in the looks she wears that has me second guessing,

got me messing around.

I'll call you out and put on a show,

I'd say you don't even know.

No you don't even know,

and if I dont then I never will.

Heartbeat outta my chest,

and it's aching now.

So this holiday just hear me out,

cause this feeling's gotta get me outta this town.

We're gonna swing oh!

We're gonna take this city and run.

We're gona fight this fight, and dance all summer long

She cries, I'm forever staying young

and we'll wait all summer to play our record,

this feeling inside that we never will.

And you're telling the story again and it sounds like a warning,

oh you feel it you feel it

We're gonna swing oh!

We're gonna take this city and run.

We're gona fight this fight, and dance all summer long

She cries, I'm forever staying young.
