La-la-la-la-la-la-la listen
La-la-la-la-la-la listen to me
I'm reminiscing, reminiscing
And I'm missing how it used to be
They say when it hits you
You’ll know that it’s true
You’ll know ‘cause you’ll feel it
Ooh-ooh
When I held you it was the only thing
Only thing
And all I knew was you were everything
Everything
You are the record in the record shop
Nobody wants to buy
You are the metaphor, the metaphor
The meta for the other guy
You call when you need it
You’re nobody’s fool
You take it or leave it
Ooh-ooh
When I held you it was the only thing
Only thing
And all I knew was you were everything
Everything
Don’t lend me your heart
You’ll only tear it apart
Apart, apart, pa-pa-pa-pa
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
When I held you it was the only thing
Only thing
And all I knew was you were everything
Everything
When I held you it was the only thing
Only thing
So why am I blue?
