[Intro]
Let's live it up
Let's live it up
Let's live it up
Let's live it up

[Verse 1]
Lead the way, and let's get it started
Seize the day, and reach for the sky
Carry on, 'cause those broken hearted
Days are gone, so wave good bye

[Pre-Chorus]
We're gonna blow up because we've got nothing to lose
We're gonna rise up above when we break all the rules
We're gonna re-write the book cause its long overdue
Tear up the script, this is it, cause it's all up to you

[Chorus]
Because tomorrow will show up on time
It's gonna follow the night of your life
You know, tomorrow begins when you say
"Tomorrow is on it's way, so let's live it up today"
Let's live it up today

[Verse 2]
Pack your bags, adventure is waiting
Gonna have the ride of your life
Smile wide, because there's no debating
It feels so right, so hold on tight!

[Pre-Chorus]
We're gonna blow up because we've got nothing to lose
We're gonna rise up above when we break all the rules
We're gonna re-write the book cause its long overdue
Tear up the script, this is it, cause it's all up to you

[Chorus]
Because tomorrow will show up on time
It's gonna follow the night of your life
You know, tomorrow begins when you say
"Tomorrow is on it's way, so lets live it up today"

[Bridge]
Today, lets live it up, lets live it up, today-ay-ay
Lets live it up today!

[Chorus]
Because tomorrow will show up on time
It's gonna follow the night of your life
You know, tomorrow begins when you say
"Tomorrow is on it's way, so lets live it up today"

Because tomorrow will show up on time
It's gonna follow the night of your life
You know, tomorrow begins when you say
"Tomorrow is on it's way, so lets live it up today"

[Outro]
Lets live it up today-ay-ay
Lets live it up today
Lets live it up today
We're going to live it up today!

Originally making songs in his basement for his friends as Sky Sailing, Adam Young then discovered synth music and became Owl City, releasing two relatively unpopular albums Maybe I’m Dreaming and Of June before making his hit single “Fireflies” which made his third album as Owl City, Ocean Eyes a hit.

After this worldwide success he put on two more albums, All Things Bright and Beautiful in 2011, and The Midsummer Station in 2012. In 2014 he released an EP, Ultraviolet, composed of 4 songs whom one would appear on his following album, Mobile Orchestra. Retiring from Owl City in 2016 to focus on Adam Young Scores, a new project made of orchestral soundtracks about historic events, he reappeared in 2017 to tease his upcoming new album Cinematic, with the release of a series of three EPs, called Reel 1 , 2 and 3.
