  • It feels like a perfect night to dress up like hipsters
    And make fun of our exes
    Uh-uh, uh-uh
    It feels like a perfect night for breakfast at midnight
    To fall in love with strangers
    Uh-uh, uh-uh

    Yeah
    We're happy, free, confused and lonely at the same time
    It's miserable and magical, oh yeah
    Tonight's the night when we forget about the deadlines
    It's time
    Uh-oh

    I don't know about you
    But I'm feeling twenty-two
    Everything will be alright, if
    You keep me next to you
    You don't know about me
    But I'll bet you want to
    Everything will be alright, if
    We just keep dancing like we're twenty-two, twenty-two

    It seems like one of those nights
    This place is too crowded
    Too many cool kids ("Who is Taylor Swift anyway? Ew")
    Uh-uh, uh-uh
    It seems like one of those nights
    We ditch the whole scene
    And end up dreamin'
    Instead of sleeping

    Yeah
    We're happy, free, confused and lonely in the best way
    It's miserable and magical, oh yeah
    Tonight's the night, when we forget about the heartbreaks
    It's time
    Uh-oh

    (Hey) I don't know about you
    But I'm feeling twenty-two
    Everything will be alright if (uh-uh-uh)
    You keep me next to you
    You don't know about me
    But I'll bet you want to
    Everything will be alright if
    We just keep dancing like we're twenty-two
    (Uh, ah-ah-ah uh) twenty-two
    I don't know about you
    twenty-two
    twenty-two

    It feels like one of those nights
    We ditch the whole scene
    It feels like one of those nights
    We won't be sleeping
    It feels like one of those nights
    You look like bad news
    I gotta have you
    I gotta have you
    Uh-uh, uh-uh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

    I don't know about you (I don't know about you)
    But I'm feeling twenty-two
    Everything will be alright, if (uuh)
    You keep me next to you
    You don't know about me (you don't know about me)
    But I'll bet you want to
    Everything will be alright, if
    We just keep dancing like we're twenty-two
    Uh-oh, oh, oh twenty-two
    (Dancing like) twenty-two
    Yeah, yeah, twenty-two, yeah, yeah

    It feels like one of those nights
    We ditch the whole scene
    It feels like one of those nights
    We won't be sleeping
    It feels like one of those nights
    You look like bad news
    I gotta have you
    I gotta have you Writer/s: Johan Karl Schuster, Martin Max Sandberg, Taylor Alison Swift
