SINGLE PREMIERE: The Wanted – “We Own The Night” (+ Lyrics)

Are you “Glad” they’re back?

British boy band The Wanted are charging ahead with their next studio album, titled Word Of Mouth, and the second single from it is now here. “We Own The Night” follows their recent “Walks Like Rihanna”, which did fairly well in the United Kingdom, but didn’t chart here in the States. On the season (and probably series) finale of The Wanted Life, their recent reality show on E!, the boys previewed a one minute clip of their new song. It will be released on iTunes worldwide on August 11. Enjoy!

Listen to the premiere of “We Own The Night”.

“WE OWN THE NIGHT”

[Chorus]
May our hearts be full like our drinks tonight
May we sing and dance ’til we lose our minds
We are only young if we seize the night
Tonight, we own the night (x2)

La da da da da, la da da da da…

[Verse 1]
When my time is over, lying in my grave
Written on my tombstone, I want it to say
This man was a legend, a legend of his time
When he was at a party, the party never died

[Bridge]
Hey, everybody’s got a dream
So, whataya say?
Are we making history?

[Chorus]
May our hearts be full like our drinks tonight
May we sing and dance ’til we lose our minds
We are only young if we seize the night
Tonight, we own the night (x2)

La da da da da, la da da da da…

[Verse 2]
For tonight I’m famous, for tonight I’m king
And I will be remembered, for centuries they’ll say
This man was a hero, a hero of the night
When he was at a party, the party never died

[Bridge]
Hey, I’m a little drunk
But I’ve got something to say
“Hold the (jars/jaws?)”

[Chorus – extended]
May our hearts be full like our drinks tonight
May we sing and dance ’til we lose our minds
We are only young if we seize the night
Tonight, we own the night
And let us wake up inside a stranger’s bed
Let us drink until there is nothing left
And this night of friends, we will not forget
Tonight, we own the night (x2)

[Chorus]
May our hearts be full like our drinks tonight
May we sing and dance ’til we lose our minds
We are only young if we seize the night
Tonight, we own the night (x2)
