A La La - Jukebox the Ghost

My hope was just in season and that’s the truth of it

As I looked up at the clouds and called them by what I did

Naming the stars after the shapes that they saw there

Light up the moon with our mouths and shouted once again

Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, ah ha

Under our breath we muttered curses at the passer-bys

Turned the curses so they rhyme and called them lullabies and

Sing ourselves to slumber sneaking somewhere

There’s a sleep we sought way back when

W-w-w,-w-w-w,-w-w-w, -w-when w-w-w,-w-w-w,-w-w-w, -w when

Just sneakin somewhere in the song upon which we rely

To keep our arms and bodies precariously entwined and

As I moved to the spot where you had just been

My mind and body turn and we begin again

A la la, a la la, a la la, again

A la la, a la la, a la la, again

Again oh babe well

Cause even you can find a shoulder to lean upon

Some other vouchered social soldier without uniform and

He will look you in the eyes and you would feel at home

And then the moment had passed and you were once again a

A la la, a la la, a la la, alone

A la la, a la la, a la la, alone

A la la, a la la, a la la, alone

A la la, a la la, a la la la la lone

Oooh oh babe well

You will find me in a stance in empty arms

Shaking my head and sneaking glances for you in the crowd

At the passer-bys

Shaking my head like we used to do in better times

T-t-tuh, t-t-tuh, t-t-t-better times

T-t-tuh, t-t-tuh, t-t-t-better times
