Sha la la, sha la la
Walking out quite late one night
Not feeling happy or feeling down
In the dark I stumbled
Over something on the ground
As I got to my feet
I heard a strange voice singing low
Shout out a song I won't forget
Until my dying day I know
She said, Sha the the, sha the la
When I heard her singing
Sha the the, sha the the, sha the la
First my impulse was to run
But then the magic caught my ear
An unforgettable refrain
A song for all the year
Sha la la, sha la la
Well, then I heard her singing
Sha the the, sha the the, sha the la
In despair I cried out loudly
Begging for her to come out
Suddenly has it began
The 'Sha la' song died out
At last I realized who had sung it
Quite amazed I turned to see
The tall trees waving me goodbye
The 'Sha la' song and me, they sought me
Sha la la, sha la la, sha la la
And then I heard her singing
Sha the the, sha the the, sha the the, sha the la
