[Verse 1: Liam]
Hey girl I'm waiting on you
I'm waiting on you
C'mon and let me sneak you out
And have a celebration, a celebration
The music up the windows down

[Pre-Chorus: Zayn]
Yeah, we'll be doing what we do
Just pretending that we're cool
And we know it too
Yeah, we'll keep doing what we do
Just pretending that we're cool, so tonight

[Chorus: All & Zayn & Harry]
Let's go crazy crazy crazy till we see the sun
I know we only met but let's pretend it's love
And never never never stop for anyone
Tonight let's get some
And live while we're young
And live while we're young
Tonight let's get some
And live while we're young

[Verse 2: Zayn and Niall & All]
Hey girl it's now or never, it's now or never
Don't overthink, just let it go
And if we get together, yeah get together
Don't let the pictures leave your phone
Let's go

[Pre-Chorus: Niall]
Yeah, we'll be doing what we do
Just pretending that we're cool, so tonight

[Chorus: All & Zayn & Harry]
Let's go crazy crazy crazy till we see the sun
I know we only met but let's pretend it's love
And never never never stop for anyone
Tonight let's get some
And live while we're young
Wanna live while we're young
Tonight let's get some
And live while we're young

[Bridge: Zayn & All & Louis]
And girl
You and I
We're about to make some memories tonight
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
I wanna live while we're young
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
We wanna live while we're young
Let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go

[Chorus: All & Zayn & Harry]
Let's go crazy crazy crazy till we see the sun
I know we only met but let's pretend it's love
And never never never stop for anyone
Tonight let's get some
And live while we're young
(Young)
Crazy crazy crazy till we see the sun
I know we only met but let's pretend it's love
And never never never stop for anyone
Tonight let's get some
(Let's get some)
And live while we're young
Wanna live, wanna live
Wanna live while we're young
Wanna live, wanna live
(Young)
Wanna live while we're young
Wanna live, wanna live
Wanna live while we're young
Tonight let's get some
And live while we're young

[End: All]
Let's go

One Direction was an English-Irish pop band based in London, consisting of Niall Horan, Liam Payne, Harry Styles, Louis Tomlinson, and previously Zayn Malik. They signed with Simon Cowell’s record label Syco Records after being formed and finishing third in the seventh series of the British televised singing competition The X Factor in 2010. Check out their journey on the competition here.

Propelled to international success by the power of social media, their two albums Up All Night and Take Me Home, released in 2011 and 2012 respectively, broke several records, topped the charts of most major markets, and generated hit singles, including “What Makes You Beautiful” and “Live While We’re Young.”

Their third album, Midnight Memories, introduced a maturing sound. Singles including “Best Song Ever” and “Story of My Life” became smash hits. The music video for “Best Song Ever” even broke the one-day Vevo record, racking up 10.9 million views in 24 hours.
