[Verse 1]
Well, I ain't got much time, so I'll get to the point
Do you wanna share a ride and get the fuck out of this joint?
I've got an impulse so repulsive that it burns
I wanna break your heart until it makes your stomach churn

[Pre-Chorus]
I gotta know if you're the one that got away
Even though it was never meant to be

[Chorus]
Say you'll stay the night, because we're running out of time
So stay the night, I don't wanna say goodbye
Say you'll stay the night, because we're running out of time
So stay the night, I don't wanna say goodbye

[Verse 2]
Well, you're so sick and tired of feeling so alone
Well, I don't understand the point if you have to go home
So won't you stay and count the circles 'round my eyes?
And we can watch the stars until the sun begins to rise

[Pre-Chorus]
I got to know if you're the one that got away
Even though it was never meant to be

[Chorus]
Say, you'll stay the night, because we're running out of time
So stay the night, I don't wanna say goodbye
Say, you'll stay the night, because we're running out of time
So stay the night, I don't wanna say goodbye

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
Tonight...
I got to know if you're the one that got away
Even though it was never meant to be

[Chorus]
Say, you'll stay the night, because we're running out of time
So stay the night, I don't wanna say goodbye
Say, you'll stay the night, because we're running out of time
So stay the night, I don't wanna say goodbye

Green Day

Formed in East Bay, California in 1986 and still going strong today, Green Day is one of the biggest punk rock acts in the world. Along with other punk bands in California such as The Offspring, Sublime, Bad Religion and Rancid, they have been credited with popularizing and reviving mainstream interest in punk rock in the U.S. in the 90s.

First starting in 1986 as Sweet Children, longtime friends Billie Joe Armstrong (guitar and lead vocalist) and Mike Dirnt (bass guitar) teamed up with John Kiffmeyer to produce their debut EP 1,000 Hours. They eventually dropped the name Sweet Children and called themselves Green Day due to the band members' fondness for cannabis (it even inspired a song featured on their first album) and for their second studio album Kerplunk they replaced Kiffmeyer with German-born drummer Tré Cool, who had been drumming since the age of 12 in a punk band, The Lookouts.

It was their 1994 record Dookie that sent the band to stardom and gave them mainstream success. Dookie, alongside their following albums Insomniac (1995) and Nimrod (1997) were certified double platinum. Eventually, the band started to fall in popularity with their 2000 record Warning which only reached gold.
