The Sha La La Song - Marianne Faithfull

At last it’s over,

I knew I could not hold him,

His love for freedom

Was far too strong.

But though he’s gone now

My life is just beginning,

I’ll soon forget him,

I’ll soon forget him,

I must forget him, Lord!

Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la,

There’s a brand new day beginning.

Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la,

There’s a brand new love that waits for me.

Will I remember,

Will I still hear him whisper?

Will I still feel his

Lips on mine?

In dreams I see him,

Perhaps he’ll stay forever

And all I’m wishing

And all I’m hoping

And all my longing, too.

Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la,

There’s a brand new day beginning.

Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la,

There’s a brand new love that waits for me.

He made me happy

And though I suffered, too,

There’s no mistaking

Our love was true.

But such a sweet love

Just wasn’t meant to be And it’s all over

Yes, it’s all over,

And now it’s done I’ll start anew.

Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la,

There’s a brand new day beginning.

Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la,

There’s a brand new love beginning.

Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la,

There’s a brand new day beginning.

Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la,

There’s a brand new love beginning.

Sha-la-la …
