While We're Young Lyrics

I should have nailed you down
Now you're on that cloud
If we're gonna do this
We gotta do it now
While we're young

There you go again
On that horse of yours
If we're gonna do this
We gotta do it now
While we're young

You should have stood me up
Now I'm draggin' you down
If we're gonna do this
We gotta do it now
While we're young

I've lost my head
Prefer foolishness instead
My words just rise
Leaving all good sense behind
Leaving all good sense behind
Leaving all good sense behind

What are you tryin' to prove?
What are you tryin' to prove?
Who are you tryin' to prove it to? (x5)

I'm hearing the first line as:

"I should have NAILED YOU DOWN"

It makes more sense too.
