Permission to Dance

It’s the thought of being young

青春年華 浮現腦海

When your heart’s just like a drum

你心便悸動不已

Beating louder with no way to guard it

難以按捺 卻愈漸強烈

When it all seems like it’s wrong

倘若稍有不順心

Just sing along to Elton John

何不隨着Elton John合唱呢

And to that feeling, we’re just getting started

順遂着心情 你我恰好啓程

When the nights get colder

當深夜漸轉涼

And the rhythms got you falling behind

你也因節奏而停滯

Just dream about that moment

那就遐思 此瞬間

When you look yourself right in the eye, eye, eye

當你凝望着自我身影

Then you say

何不吶喊道

I wanna dance

我想盡情舞動

The music’s got me going

音樂不止 舞步不息

Ain’t nothing that can stop how we move yeah

隨節奏搖擺 怎能隨意停歇

Let’s break our plans

何不取消原定計劃

And live just like we’re golden

盛享燦爛年華

And roll in like we’re dancing fools

如痴如醉 縱情揮灑

We don’t need to worry

你我無需憂慮

‘Cause when we fall we know how to land

因為就算墜跌 我們也能順利着陸

Don’t need to talk the talk, just walk the walk tonight

何必多言 縱享今夜便好

‘Cause we don’t need permission to dance

我們縱情起舞 無需他人准許

There’s always something that’s standing in the way

前方旅途總有阻隔

But if you don’t let it faze ya

但倘若你 心無旁騖

You’ll know just how to break

便知如何克服

Just keep the right vibe yeah

維持良好心態

‘Cause there’s no looking back

畢竟無回頭路可走

There ain’t no one to prove

無需向誰證明

We don’t got this on lock yeah

我們才不拘束

The wait is over

等候良久

The time is now so let’s do it right

時間已到 就此啓程吧

Yeah we’ll keep going

我們將徹夜酣暢

And stay up until we see the sunrise

直至日出時分

And we’ll say

我們將歡呼道

I wanna dance

我想盡情舞動

The music’s got me going

音樂不止 舞步不息

Ain’t nothing that can stop how we move yeah

隨節奏搖擺 怎能隨意停歇

Let’s break our plans

何不取消原定計劃

And live just like we’re golden

盛享燦爛年華

And roll in like we’re dancing fools

如痴如醉 縱情揮灑

We don’t need to worry

你我無需憂慮

‘Cause when we fall we know how to land

因為就算墜跌 我們也能順利着陸

Don’t need to talk the talk, just walk the walk tonight

何必多言 縱享今夜便好

‘Cause we don’t need permission to dance

我們縱情起舞 無需他人准許

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

我們縱情起舞 無需他人准許

Da na na na na na na

Da na na na na na na

Da na na na na na na

Well let me show ya

接下來 我將向你展示

That we can keep the fire alive

如何留得心火温存

‘Cause it’s not over

結局未至

Till it’s over say it one more time

何不趁未到終點前

Say

再度吶喊道

I wanna dance

我想盡情舞動

The music’s got me going

音樂不止 舞步不息

Ain’t nothing that can stop how we move yeah

隨節奏搖擺 怎能隨意停歇

Let’s break our plans

何不取消原定計劃

And live just like we’re golden

盛享燦爛年華

And roll in like we’re dancing fools

如痴如醉 縱情揮灑

We don’t need to worry

你我無需憂慮

‘Cause when we fall we know how to land

因為就算墜跌 我們也能順利着陸

Don’t need to talk the talk, just walk the walk tonight

何必多言 縱享今夜便好

‘Cause we don’t need permission to dance

我們縱情起舞 無需他人准許
