laying low
one more day and in the background strings play
believe this
cause it's true
i have had troubled times
that nobody else could see
i have had lucky nights
where I was the one to beat
sha la lee
and I
i wanna hear from you
sidewalk, steal all my thoughts
when nothing seems to move
last year, last winter
nobody else could see
everyone has gone
there's nobody else but me
sha la lee
and I
i wanna hear from you
sidewalk, steal all my thoughts
when nothing seems to move
clear blue water
turning into miles
like a hamster on a wheel
in a pet shop running wild
and I
i wanna hear from you
sidewalk steal all my thoughts
when nothing seems to move
black waves rolling in
and rolling out to sea
sha la lee
