Here we are so what you gonna do
Do I gotta spell it out for you
I can see that you got other plans for tonight
But I don't really care

Size me up you know I beat the best
Tick tock no time to rest
Let them say what their gonna say
But tonight I just don't really care

Come on baby we ain't gonna live forever
Let me show you all the things that we could do
You know I want to be together
And I want to spend the night with you
With you
Come with me tonight
We could make the night last forever

I've seen it all I've got nothing to prove
Come on baby just make your move
Follow me lets leave it all behind tonight
Like me just don't care

Let me take you on the ride of your life
that's what I said alright
They can say what they want to say
'cause tonight I just don't even care

Come on baby we ain't gonna live forever
Let me show you all the things that we could do
You know I want to be together
And I want to spend the night with you
With you
Come with me tonight
We could make the night last forever

Lets pretend your mine
We could just pretend, we could just pretend, yeah yeah
You got what I like
You got what I like, I got what you like
Oh come on
Just one taste and you'll want more

So tell me what your waiting for
Come on baby we ain't gonna live forever
Let me show you all the things that we could do
You know I want to be together
And I want to spend the night with you
With you

Come with me tonight
We could make the night last forever
Come on baby we ain't gonna live forever
Let me show you all the things that we could do
You know I want to be together
And I want to spend the night with you
With you
Come with me tonight
We could make the night last forever

    General Comment:Oh and maybe for you it doesn't have a deep meaning and you think oh she's a slut, she's just having fun, a one night stand, whatsoever, but I am very in love with a guy and I can totally relate with the lyrics so I don't think it's trashy at all.

    General Comment:If people don't like The Veronicas, or don't like this particular song, why bother looking it up?

    General Comment:I apologize for the double post, my computer's being retarded. I just wanted to say a few more things. One, tAtU is not a les band. Their manager had them portrayed that way to gain publicity. Two, The Veronicas didn't actually write 4ever. It's one of few songs on the album that they didn't have a hand in writing. Three, their music videos were not directed by them. They did not much say in what they would be doing. That's the industry.

    Here we are, so watcha gonna do?
    Do I gotta spell it out for you?
    I can see that you've got other plans for tonight
    But I don't really care
    -They're already with each other somewhere. She's flirting and dropping hints that she wants to go somewhere else with him. She's challenging him. Testing him. He doesn't get it, which is why she says,"Do I gotta spell it out for you?". He has other plans for the evening (not necessarily meaning that he has a girlfriend, it could be anything really) but she doesn't care about them.

    Size me up, you know I beat the best
    -She's confident that she's better looking than anyone else and assumes he thinks that too-
    Tick tock, no time to rest
    -She's getting impatient with him, possibly because he's wasting time-
    Let them say what they gonna say
    Cuz tonight, I just don't really care
    -She doesn't care what other people will think because it's just an opinion-
    C'mon baby, we ain't gonna live forever
    Let me show you all the things that we could do
    -She's telling him to move on, that he's wasting time here. To convince him, she'll show him what they could do (which again, doesn't have to be sexual).
    You know you wanna be together
    And I wanna spend the night with you
    -She's telling him that she knows he likes her, even if it's slight. "I wanna spend the night with you" meaning, let's hang out, go somewhere, do something. That doesn't have to be sexual either.-
    Come with me tonight
    We can make the night last forever
    -She's continuing to tell him to go with her. "Make the night last forever" means that they will have a memorable night, one that lives on in their memories years from that night-

    I've seen it all, I've got nothing to prove
    C'mon baby, just make your move
    -"Seen it all" means she's been through many experiences. "Nothing to prove" means she's telling him that she shouldn't have to prove herself to him because she already has. She's shown him that she could be worthwhile or that she likes him or whatever, and now she's waiting for him to prove himself. Or flirt back. Whichever.
    Follow me, let's leave it all behind tonight
    Like we just don't care
    -She's telling him to leave behind all the stress and problems of their everyday lives as if they didn't care, let loose, and have fun.-

    Let me take you on the ride of your life
    That's what I said, alright?
    -She's telling him that he'll have the best night of his life if he goes with her. He doesn't believe her, so she has to repeat herself.-

    Let's pretend you're mine
    -She's telling him to just pretend that they're dating, that it doesn't have to be official. To get to know her before he makes any decisions.-
    You got what I like
    -She values his qualities-
    Oh come on, just one taste and you'll want more
    -She's promises that he won't regret going with her and that he'll want to spend even more time with her-
    So tell me what you're waiting for
    -After all she's said, all she's done, she wants to know why he's stalling
