This is Our Year

Verse 1 (80s Rock Feel)

Rust on the radio, engine alive

Sunset bleeding on Highway 5

Six-string screaming in overdrive

We were born just to feel this ride

Denim sky and a reckless grin

Kicked that small-town silence in

You turned slow in the parking lot glow

And the whole damn world said go

Pre-Chorus (Rock Build-Up)

Heartbeat heavy like a kick drum sound

Every step shaking the ground

Closer now, no turning back

We’re lighting up the black

Chorus (2010 Party Pop Anthem)

This is our year — hands up, no brakes

We’re glitter and bass and heartaches

Turn it up, let the speakers blow

We’re losing control

This is our year — flashlights, champagne

Dancing wild in the pouring rain

Pull me close, don’t disappear

This is our year

Oh-oh-oh-oh

We’re unstoppable here

Oh-oh-oh-oh

This is our year

Verse 2 (unchanged)

House party on a Friday night

Red cups raised in the flashing lights

You and me on the balcony

Talking ’bout who we wanna be

Every touch just a little more

Like we’ve never felt before

Static in the summer air

I could feel it everywhere

Pre-Chorus (Rock Tension again)

Your eyes cut through neon haze

Slow ignition, summer blaze

One more inch and we both know why

Tonight’s the night we fly

Chorus (Party Pop Explosion)

This is our year — hands up, no brakes

We’re glitter and bass and heartaches

Turn it up, let the speakers blow

We’re losing control

This is our year — flashlights, champagne

Dancing wild in the pouring rain

Pull me close, don’t disappear

This is our year

Bridge (unchanged, Big 80s Power Moment)

Oh-oh-oh, we were sparks in the dark

Oh-oh-oh, lighting up every heart

From strangers to something real

Now there’s nothing left to hide

One kiss under stadium lights

Crowd fades out, it’s just you and I

All along we knew somehow

This was our moment now

Final Chorus (Rock + Pop kombiniert, biggest moment)

This is our year — scream it loud

Standing tall in a roaring crowd

No fear, we made it here

We’re alive

This is our year — skin on skin

From almost-love to giving in

Best year we’ll ever know

Don’t let it go

Oh-oh-oh-oh

Hands up in the air

Oh-oh-oh-oh

This is our year

Outro (Happy End – emotional, rhythmisch, Gitarrengetragen)

Silver morning through the blinds

Your hand still tangled up in mine

No more almost, no more maybe

We made it, baby

Last night’s echoes in the hall

Empty bottles, disco ball

But all I see in golden light

Is you right here by my side

Slow chords ringing, soft and clear

Every doubt just disappears

From a spark to something real

This is how forever feels

Oh-oh-oh, the fire’s still burning

Oh-oh-oh, the pages are turning

Best year of our lives, my dear

And it starts right here

This is our year…

And we’re still standing here
