Sha La La
[Verse 1]
I miss the us before all the arguments
Waking up at 10:30, holding hands at the farmer's market
I miss the us at the Archstone Apartments
With your roommates taking mushrooms and listening to 1989
I miss our feed before it was political, just pictures of us kissing
And the dress you'd wear on Christmas Eve
I miss the us where we were both excited
You could tell by the Verizon bill we'd talk all night and never sleep
[Pre-Chorus]
This is the part where you say
"Wait, hunny, I wanna try"
We could talk in the morning
But this time, no
This is the part where you say
"Hey, it's all gonna be alright"
God, I wish it was easy
Sha-la-la-la
[Chorus]
Sha-la-la, sha-la-la
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Sha-la-la, sha-la-la
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
[Verse 2]
I miss the world before it was polluted
With space cowboy billionaires when irony was still ironic
I miss America right after 9/11
When everyone was bonded even if it only lasted seconds
I miss the us when we thought we were cool
Just two kids from art school with skinny ties and open collars
I miss the us when we were both excited
You could tell by the Verizon bill, we'd text 'til we'd fall asleep
[Pre-Chorus]
This is the part where you say
"Wait, hunny, I wanna try"
We could talk in the morning
But this time, no
This is the part where you say
"Hey, it's all gonna be alright"
God, I wish it was easy
Sha-la-la-la
[Chorus]
Sha-la-la, sha-la-la
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Sha-la-la, sha-la-la
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Sha-la-la, sha-la-la
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Sha-la-la, sha-la-la
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
[Instrumental Break]
[Pre-Chorus]
This is the part where you say
"Hey, it's all gonna be alright"
God, I wish it was easy
Sha-la-la-la
[Chorus]
Sha-la-la, sha-la-la
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Sha-la-la, sha-la-la
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Sha-la-la, sha-la-la
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Sha-la-la, sha-la-la
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
[Outro]
(God I wish) Sha-la-la, sha-la-la (It was easy)
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
(God I wish) Sha-la-la, sha-la-la (It was easy)
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
(God I wish it was easy)
(Sha-la-la, sha-la-la) This is the part where you say
(Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la) "Hey, it's all gonna be alright"
(God I wish it was easy)
(Sha-la-la, sha-la-la) God, I wish it was easy
(Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la) Sha-la-la-la
