  • It's the thought of being young
    When your heart's just like a drum
    Beating louder with no way to guard it
    When it all seems like it's wrong
    Just sing along to Elton John
    And to that feeling, we're just getting started

    [Pre-Chorus: Jimin, Jin]
    When the nights get colder
    And the rhythms got you falling behind
    Just dream about that moment
    When you look yourself right in the eye, eye, eye
    Then you say

    [Chorus: Jung Kook, V]
    I wanna dance
    The music's got me going
    Ain't nothing that can stop how we move, yeah
    Let's break our plans
    And live just like we're golden
    And roll in like we're dancing fools

    [Post-Chorus: Jimin, RM, Jin]
    We don't need to worry
    'Cause when we fall, we know how to land
    Don't need to talk the talk, just walk the walk tonight
    'Cause we don't need permission to dance

    [Verse 2: j-hope, SUGA]
    There's always something that's standing in the way
    But if you don't let it phase ya
    You'll know just how to break
    Just keep the right vibe, yeah
    'Cause there's no looking back
    There ain't no one to prove
    We don't got this on lock, yeah

    [Pre-Chorus: V, Jung Kook, Jimin]
    The wait is over
    The time is now so let's do it right, mm (Yeah)
    Yeah we'll keep going
    And stay up until we see the sunrise
    And we'll say (Yeah)

    [Chorus: V, Jin]
    I wanna dance
    The music's got me going
    Ain't nothing that can stop how we move, yeah
    Let's break our plans
    And live just like we're golden
    And roll in like we're dancing fools

    [Post-Chorus: Jung Kook, j-hope, Jimin]
    We don't need to worry
    'Cause when we fall, we know how to land
    Don't need to talk the talk, just walk the walk tonight
    'Cause we don't need permission to dance

    [Bridge: Jin, Jung Kook]
    Da-na-na-na-na-na-na
    Da-na-na-na-na-na-na
    Da-na-na-na-na-na-na
    No, we don't need permission to dance
    Da-na-na-na-na-na-na (Hey)
    Da-na-na-na-na-na-na
    Da-na-na-na-na-na-na

    [Pre-Chorus: Jimin, V]
    Well, let me show ya
    That we can keep the fire alive
    'Cause it's not over
    Till it's over, say it one more time
    Say

    [Chorus: Jung Kook, Jimin]
    I wanna dance
    The music's got me going (Music's got me going)
    Ain't nothing that can stop how we move, yeah (Hey, yeah)
    Let's break our plans
    And live just like we're golden (Ooh)
    And roll in like we're dancing fools (Like we're dancing fools)

    [Post-Chorus: Jin, SUGA, V, Jung Kook]
    We don't need to worry
    'Cause when we fall, we know how to land (We know how to land)
    Don't need to talk the talk, just walk the walk tonight (Ooh)
    'Cause we don't need permission to dance Lyrics licensed and provided by LyricFind
