[Chorus: Charli XCX]
I just wanna go
I just wanna go back, back to 1999
Take a ride to my old neighborhood
I just wanna go back
Sing "Hit me baby, one more time"
Wanna go back
I just wanna go back, back to 1999
Take a ride to my old neighborhood
I just wanna go back
Sing "Hit me baby, one more time"
Wanna go back, wanna go
Wanna go back, back to 1999
Take a ride to my old neighborhood
I just wanna go back
Sing "Hit me baby, one more time" (oh yeah)
Wanna go back, wanna go
[Verse 2: Troye Sivan & Charli XCX]
Yeah, I remember back home
Best friends, all night, no phone
No cares, I was dumb and so young
My room singing Michael Jackson (hee, hee)
Never under pressure, oh
Those days it was so much better, oh
Feelin' cool in my youth, I'm askin'
"Does anyone remember how we did it back then?"
[Pre-Chorus: Charli XCX]
Ooh, wish that we could go back in time, uh
Ooh, maybe we could do it tonight
Tonight's the night
[Chorus: Charli XCX with Troye Sivan]
I just wanna go back, back to 1999
Take a ride to my old neighborhood
I just wanna go back
Sing "Hit me baby, one more time"
Wanna go back, wanna go
[Post-Chorus: Charli XCX & Troye Sivan]
Back to where we came from
Playin' air guitar on the roof
In the kitchen, up on the table
Like we had a beautiful view
Wanna go
I just wanna go back, back to 1999
Uh, yeah
[Outro: Charli XCX]
I wanna go
I wanna go
Wanna go back
I wanna go
Uh, yeah
I just wanna go
I just wanna go back, back to 1999
Take a ride to my old neighborhood
I just wanna go back
Sing "Hit me baby, one more time"
Wanna go back
I just wanna go back, back to 1999
Take a ride to my old neighborhood
I just wanna go back
Sing "Hit me baby, one more time"
Wanna go back, wanna go
Wanna go back, back to 1999
Take a ride to my old neighborhood
I just wanna go back
Sing "Hit me baby, one more time" (oh yeah)
Wanna go back, wanna go
[Verse 2: Troye Sivan & Charli XCX]
Yeah, I remember back home
Best friends, all night, no phone
No cares, I was dumb and so young
