Lalaladadum
Lalaladadum
Lalaladadum
Lalaladadum (Oh)
We're a thousand miles from comfort, we have traveled land and sea
But as long as you are with me, there's no place I'd rather be
I would wait forever, exalted in the scene
As long as I am with you, my heart continues to beat
With every step we take, Kyoto to The Bay
Strolling so casually
We're different and the same, gave you another name
Switch up the batteries
If you gave me a chance I would take it
It's a shot in the dark but I'll make it
Know with all of your heart, you can't shame me
When I am with you, there's no place I'd rather be
No, no, no, no place I'd rather be
No, no, no, no place I'd rather be
No, no, no, no place I'd rather be
Lalaladadum
Lalalada
We staked out on a mission to find our inner peace
Oh, make it everlasting so nothing's incomplete
With every step we take, Kyoto to The Bay
Strolling so casually
We're different and the same, gave you another name
Switch up the batteries (Woah)
If you gave me a chance I would take it
It's a shot in the dark but I'll make it
Know with all of your heart, you can't shame me
When I am with you, there's no place I'd rather be
No, no, no, no place I'd rather be
No, no, no, no place I'd rather be
No, no, no, no place I'd rather be
When I am with you, there's no place I'd rather be
Lalaladadum
Lalaladadum (Be)
Lalaladadum
Lalaladadum (No oh)
Lalaladadum
Lalaladadum (Be be be be)
Yeah-e-yeah-e-yeah-e-yeah-e-yeah, yeah
If you gave me a chance I would take it
It's a shot in the dark but I'll make it
Know with all of your heart, you can't shame me
When I am with you, there's no place I'd rather be
No, no, no, no place I'd rather be
No, no, no, no place I'd rather be
No, no, no, no place I'd rather be
When I am with you, there's no place I'd rather be
