Lyrics[]
Na, na, na, na, nanairo
We'll be living in color
Na, na, na, na, nanairo, oh, oh, oh
Let me see your hands, do your dance, rock n' roll
Go and move your feet, feel the beat in your soul
It's better, better, better, better in the sun (oh yeah, oh yeah)
Forever, ever, ever, ever having fun (oh yeah, oh yeah)
Feeling all the love, turn it up to a ten
Going to the moon, then we do it again
So make a list that we can wish upon a star (oh yeah, oh yeah)
Let's dream away, and you can take me by the heart (oh yeah, oh yeah)
We can shine from within
'Cause the magic never ends
Living in color
Lighting up the streets
Memories for you and me
Let's keep it together
You know that it's better when we're dancing (dancing), dancing (dancing), dancing
We'll be living in color
We'll be living in color
(Na, na, na, na, nanairo) we'll be living in color
Alright, feelin' that feel good sunlight
Melody hittin' just right, with arms wide open
Make you wanna say, "Ooh"
Bein' right here with you is a dream coming true
And it's kaleidoscopic
We can shine from within
'Cause the magic never ends
Living in color
Lighting up the streets
Memories for you and me
Let's keep it together, oh
You know that it's better
When we're dancing (dancing), dancing (dancing), dancing
We'll be living in color
We'll be living in color
(Na, na, na, na, nanairo, oh, oh) we'll be living in color
Just look inside of your heart, and you will find it
All it takes to ignite is a spark, so keep on shining
We can show each other how
And it starts right here and now (let's go, let's go, let's go)
It's a good time to have a good time
(It's a good time to have a good time)
It's a good time to have a good time
(It's a good time to have a good time)
No rainy days and no problems
Just good vibes, and we got 'em
Just big smiles and we 'bout it
So let's shout it (shout it)
Living in color
Lighting up the streets
Memories for you and me
Let's keep it together
You know that it's better
When we're dancing (oh), dancing (oh), dancing (oh)
We'll be living in color
We'll be living in color
(Na, na, na, na, nanairo) we'll be living in color
Let's keep it together, you know that it's better
When we're dancing (dancing), dancing (dancing), dancing
We'll be living in color
