Lyrics

La-la-la, la, la-la, la, la-la, la, la-la-la
La-la-la, la, la-la, la, la-la, la, la-la-la
Just like a river keep flowing by
And saw my teardrops falling from my eyes
Darling, why? Why did you let me cry?
Oh, yeah
You hurt me in so many ways
But I forgive you, believe me when I say
I let it last, let it last forever and a day
And I'm alright
La-la-la, la, la-la, la, la-la, la, la-la-la
Yes, I'm alright
La-la-la, la, la-la, la, la-la, la, la-la-la
Yeah
My days and my nights are so lonely
Just like a king on an empty throne
Darling believe me, believe me I'm so all alone
La-la-la, la, la-la, la, la-la, la, la-la-la
Oh, yeah, yeah, I'm alright
La-la-la, la, la-la, la, la-la, la, la-la-la
