It started on a lonely Friday The world was gray and overcast again I couldn't find no one to be my friend Locked the bedroom door as always Saw my brother's records laying there And so began a life-long love affair I put the record on the stereo And though I wasn't quite a Romeo The loneliness was gone When I put the record on And with the spinning of the turn table I felt a burden lifted from my soul I saw a new day dawn When I put the record on Years went by and still I struggled Lovers lost to what I could not say Running from the sober light of day But as the world around me crumbled I heard the sweet and lyrical refrain Heroes walking homeward through the rain I put the record on the stereo... And it said: Shalalalala Shalalalalala You ain't alone in your sorrow Shalalalala Shalalalalala You ain't alone in your pain Shalalalala Shalalalalala You'll feel better tomorrow I put the record on the stereo...
