Live Those Days Tonight Lyrics

Born too late to feel the golden age
Missed the rush, the lights of better days
You cut me down to size with wise words
And turn around
Gonna feel, gonna touch, gonna hold the things you had

Don't hold back

Won't feel the times you had
I can't touch your precious past
But I'll live, I'll live, I'll live
I'll live those days tonight

You claim your history
is beyond a man like me
But I'll live, I'll live, I'll live
I'll live those days tonight

Face the ghost the keeps me on the ground
Take the best of what they talk about
In the cold outside we're waiting
To embrace the nights and pull it close
I'm gonna feel the love you had

Don't hold back

Won't feel the times you had
I can't touch your precious past
But I'll live, I'll live, I'll live
I'll live those days tonight

You claim your history
is beyond a man like me
But I'll live, I'll live, I'll live
I'll live those days tonight

I live those days, live those dreams, like they're all mine
I hold them close inside
I live those days, live those dreams, like they're all mine
I won't let them hold me back

Won't feel the times you had
I can't touch your precious past
But I'll live, I'll live, I'll live
I'll live those days tonight

You claim your history
is beyond a man like me
But I'll live, I'll live, I'll live
I'll live those days tonight

About being too young to live the 80s, people older than you telling you how great everything was back then, but not letting that stop you from having a good time now.

It sounds like he's saying "I'LL" live, not I live... Does anyone else hear that? I also think the first line of the chorus is wrong. I'm not sure what it is, perhaps "Won't feel the times you had" or "times you hide".

Lyric Correction

The way I take it is a guy who's jealous of a girl's past, yet he's going to "live those days tonight". Presumably sexually?

My Interpretation

Can't wait for their 2nd album to come out! This song rocks :D

Yeah loads of the lyrics are wrong, hence why most of the lines here make no sense.

I think a similar thing to AllyS2 but think its more about the first generation of illegal raves, always hear about how great they used to be and how now days they're just a pale immitation, here they're saying they took what was best about it and they'll live that tonight.

But thats just one idea, it could relate to life in general, how you're always told about how life used to be and how we don't have it anymore, well we'll take what we can from your past and live our own lives

I believe it's "Can I feel, can I touch, can I hold the things you had" and not "Gonna feel, gonna touch, gonna hold the things you had", but I might be wrong.

Awesome music, btw!
