Back when the nights were long and the radios loud,
We found ourselves in the songs that rocked the crowd.
Every tape, every record, every chorus and rhyme,
They carried our hearts through the tides of time.
These are the songs that made us sing along.
(ooooh ooooh)
Spinnin' records on a Friday night,
Dreaming bright and Blinded by the Light.
Cassette wheels turnin', we were Born to Be Alive.
(oh oh oh)
Singin' Stayin' Alive just to survive.
We drift away while the bonfires burned.
(oh oh oh)
Every chorus we sang was another lesson learned.
Those are the songs that made us sing along.
(sing along)
Hands up high when the nights felt strong.
(so strong!)
In beachside bars we sang all night long.
(all night long)
We laughed, we loved, we found where we belong.
(oh oh oh)
Those are the songs that made us sing along.
(sing along)
Arena lights rising, hands in the air,
Don't Stop Believin', we were all there.
Boardwalk guitars where the river bends,
Sweet Child O' Mine rang out with our friends.
We'd Go Our Own Way 'til we found our sound,
That music still lifts us whenever we're down.
Those are the songs that made us sing along.
(sing along)
Hands up high when the nights felt strong.
(so strong!)
In beachside bars we sang all night long.
(all night long)
We laughed, we loved, we found where we belong.
(oh oh oh)
Those are the songs that made us sing along.
(sing along)
Paradise by the Dashboard Light fuelled our desire,
While Born to Run set our hearts on fire.
Billie Jean made us dance in a Purple Rain,
Every note a spark, every song a flame.
Africa, Jolene, and Islands in the Stream,
All came alive in our summer dream.
Those are the songs that made us sing along.
(sing along)
Hands up high when the nights felt strong.
(so strong)
When the bands played loud, we could do no wrong.
(no wrong)
With More Than a Feeling, we still belong.
(still belong)
Those are the songs that made us sing along.
(sing along)
When the sun sets low, and the day is gone,
The streets sing those songs as we sing along.
The soundtrack of nights when our hearts were young,
We'll teach our children these songs as we sing along.
("Sing along… sing along…")
