Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It was a pleasure then
Could you just be here again?
To know what there was to see
When all the Sunday people
Were so quiet in the dark
Afraid to be better
The next day
[Verse 2]
La la la la la la la la la la la la la
[Verse 3]
It was a pleasure then
When we could sit and stare again
Until the stars fell through the cloudy trees, onto the grass
Stars to smile with us
Until they too had tears in their eyes
You tell us this one tale
Of how much we must not agree
[Verse 4]
It was a pleasure then
To see the dying days again
In the horror of the nights
Never, never, never, never be too bright
We've got no secret
Hard to hide
Somewhere at last
As long as we could see
The sky confess this crime
Of this bitter tasting hatefulness
Above our shattered minds
[Verse 5]
It was a pleasure
It was a pleasure
[Verse 6]
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 la la la la
