  • Oh, in your eyes I see everything in black and white
    And the pictures of our perfect life
    Here by your side you make me feel so young again
    And I wanna live forever

    You're all dressed up and you're ready to go for a ride
    Turning heads in your brand new dress
    With your name tattooed on the side of my neck
    I want everyone to know

    You're my Bette Davis I'm your Cary Grant
    Let's make love all night don't get up at the prohibition
    The big depression's over lets have a drink to them
    We'll stay young forever living in our silver screen romance

    Oh the nights were cold without you hanging on my arm it's so good to be home
    And now the war is over we never have to say goodbye
    We can stay like this forever

    Yeah, you're all dressed up and you're ready to go for a ride
    Turning heads in your brand new dress
    With your name tattooed on the side of my neck
    I want everyone to know

    You're my Bette Davis I'm your Carrie Grant
    Lets make love all night don't get up at the prohibition
    The big depressions over lets have a drink to them
    We'll stay young forever living in our silver screen romance
    We'll stay young forever, we'll stay young forever
    We'll stay young forever
    Say that you will stay with me forever we will live this dream
    Dream

    You'll be Bette Davis and I'll be Carrie Grant
    Let's make love all night, forget about the prohibition
    The big depressions over lets have a drink to them
    We'll stay young forever living in our silver screen romance

    We'll stay young forever living in our silver screen romance
    We'll stay young forever living in our silver screen romance Writer/s: BENJI MADDEN, DON GILMORE, JOEL MADDEN
