Verse 1

No I never knew you
We both went to different schools
Me so scared of the rules, you chasing all the girls
But it seems to me
We never grew up we just got ourselves free
Inventing what we could be to buy all their curls

Chorus

Get up and dance 
Get up and smile 
Get up and drink to the ones who are gone in the shortest while

Verse 2

She was just eighteen
she collapsed and they took her away
She didn't make it for more than an hour then she was gone
What do you say? 
When someone's been taken that way
Before they've had a day to fly in the sun

Chorus

Get up and dance 
Get up and smile 
Get up and drink to the ones who are gone in the shortest while
Get up and dance 
Get up and smile 
Get up and drink to the ones who are gone in the shortest while

Bridge

I'll sing my sorrow x4

Verse 3

No I never knew you
We both landed up as different fools
Me so scared of the rules, you chasing all the girls
But it seems to me
We never grew up we just got ourselves free
Inventing what we could be to buy all their curls

Chorus

Get up and dance 
Get up and smile 
Get up and drink to the ones who are gone in the shortest while
Get up and dance 
Get up and smile 
Get up and drink to the ones who are gone in the shortest while

Bridge

I'll sing my sorrow x9
