Background[]
| “ | Writing for Miley was fun 'cause I think she's funny. I met her and I liked her vibe, so I was like, 'OK, I'll write, like, a party song for a younger crowd.' ... And that was fun just because I like her. | ” |
In an interview with Seventeen, Ke$ha revealed she was paid $1.63 for her involvement on the song.
| “ | It was like $1.63 cents for a song I wrote – I think for Miley Cyrus. It was an embarrassingly tiny amount. But I never cashed it and it's on a bulletin board in my house. | ” |
Lyrics[]
Seems like we're holdin' on forever
I gotta let it go
Time's up you pushed me to surrender tonight
Who knows what's happens now whatever
Wherever the wind blows
And I'm there as long as were together all right
Let's have the time of our lives
Like there's no one else around
Just throw your hands up high
Even when they try to take us down
We'll have the time of our lives
'Til the lights burn out
Let's laugh until we cry
Life is only what you make it now
Let's have the time of our lives
Dreamers don't care if it's right
I think I'm really into you
Restless let's leave it all behind tonight
Crazy when you cross my mind
Oh the trouble we could get into
So what let’s just give this a try all right
Let's have the time of our lives
Like there's no one else around
Just throw your hands up high
Even when they try to take us down
We'll have the time of our lives
'Til the lights burn out
Let's laugh until we cry
Life is only what you make it now
Let's have the time of our lives
Looking back what are we waiting for
Take the chance now's all we got for sure
Let's have the time of our lives
Like there's no one else around
Just throw your hands up high
Even when they try to take us down
We'll have the time of our lives
'Til the lights burn out
Let's laugh until we cry
Life is only what you make it now
Let's have the time of our lives
