Party Life Lyrics

[Verse 1]
No one is perfect, we all lie
Life ain't forever, we all die
What is the purpose, we all wonder
Pain doesn't discriminate, we all cry

[Chorus]
You and I were born to fly
Destiny does not apply (Oh)
Broken dreams are made of glass
Faith alone will not suffice (Yeah)
You and I were born to fly
Destiny does not apply
But we don't wanna think
We wanna dance, party life

[Post-Chorus]
Party life, party life
Oh, ooh-woah, ooh-woah, ooh-woah, ooh-woah, ooh-woah
Yeah, yeah-yeah

[Verse 2]
No politician can change greed
So many follow but don't lead
What is the purpose, we all wonder
Love is the only thing we all need
[Chorus]
You and I were born to fly
Destiny does not apply (Oh, yeah, ayy, baby)
Broken dreams are made of glass
Faith alone will not suffice (Yeah)
You and I were born to fly
Destiny does not apply
But we don't wanna think
We wanna dance, party life

[Bridge 1]
Right, you're alright baby
Oh, ooh-woah, ooh-woah, ooh-woah, ooh-woah, ooh-woah
Look around, oh yeah, ayy

[Chorus]
You and I were born to fly
Destiny does not apply (No it don't apply, baby)
Broken dreams are made of glass
Faith alone will not suffice (Say it again now)
You and I were born to fly (Ayy)
Destiny does not apply
But we don't wanna think
We wanna dance, party life

[Bridge 2]
In ice the ship is going down
We'll just keep on dancing, ayy
[Chorus]
You and I were born to fly (Yeah, baby)
Destiny does not apply (Oh)
Broken dreams are made of glass
Faith alone will not suffice (Faith alone)
You and I were born to fly
Destiny does not apply
But we don't wanna think
We wanna dance, party life (We came to dance)

You and I were born to fly (Yeah, baby)
Destiny does not apply (Oh)
Broken dreams are made of glass
Faith alone will not suffice (Faith alone)
You and I were born to fly
Destiny does not apply
But we don't wanna think
We wanna dance, party life

[Outro]
It's kinda sad but I think
We're gonna keep on dancing

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
