When I met you, you were life and soul

'Cause everywhere we'd ever go

Yeah, you and I were the heart of the party

Didn't know the responsibilities

We were just out there, two kids with dreams

All we wanted was to dance with everybody

We'd be at the bar drinking rum and coke

all night, in New York City

'Cause sunrise over Central Park, it looked so pretty

I can't quite put my finger on

the time that you went missing

I won't die with you, I won't check out

This ship ain't sinking, it just won't go down

'Cause I'm not finished, my heart beats loud

Yeah, I'm still swinging, why you throwing in the towel?

Where's the fire inside?

Well, that was then and this is now

It seems you lost your way somehow

Somebody stole the crazy kid inside you

Now you get your thrills from different pills

And all your chat is kids and bills

It's bad to think the good times are behind you

While I'm here

sitting on the White Isle in the land of living

Sand under my feet, my supermodel with me

I can't quite put my finger on

the time that you went missing

I won't die with you, I won't check out

This ship ain't sinking, it just won't go down

'Cause I'm not finished, my heart beats loud

Yeah, I'm still swinging, why you throwing in the towel?

Where's the fire inside?

Where's the fire inside?

You know, you know

We all grow old

You know, you know

We all grow old

I won't die with you, I won't check out

This ship ain't sinking, it just won't go down

'Cause I'm not finished, my heart beats loud

Yeah, I'm still swinging, why you throwing in the towel?

I won't die with you, I won't check out

This ship ain't sinking, it just won't go down

'Cause I'm not finished, my heart beats loud

Yeah, I'm still swinging, why you throwing in the towel?

Where's the fire inside?
