Lyrics

[Verse 1]
There's a place I dream about
Where the sun never goes out
And the sky is deep and blue
Won't you take me there with you?
[Verse 2]
Ooh, we can begin again
Shed our skin, let the sunshine in
At the edge of the ocean
We can start over again
[Verse 3]
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la, sha-la-la, sha-la-la
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la, sha-la-la, sha-la-la
[Verse 4]
There's a world I've always known
Somewhere far away from home
When I close my eyes, I see
All this space and mystery
[Verse 5]
Ooh, we can begin again
Shed our skin, let the sunshine in
At the edge of the ocean
We can start over again
[Verse 6]
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la, sha-la-la, sha-la-la
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la, sha-la-la, sha-la-la
[Verse 7]
Ooh, we can begin again
Shed our skin, let the sunshine in
At the edge of the ocean
We can start over again
At the edge of the ocean
We can start over again
[Verse 8]
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la, sha-la-la, sha-la-la
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la, sha-la-la, sha-la-la
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la, sha-la-la, sha-la-la
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la, sha-la-la, sha-la-la
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la, sha-la-la, sha-la-la
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la, sha-la-la, sha-la-la
