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 la la, sha la la"

When I heard her singing

"Sha la la, sha la la, sha la 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 la la, sha la la, sha la 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 la la, sha la la, sha la la, sha la la"
