The Crowd was Singing Wonderwall

A song by The Script.

Got drunk, had a falling out
Can’t remember what we fought about
Those days turned into years ‘cause
Pride stood like a wall between us
Shell shocked when I seen your face
The same row, couple seats away
Half smiled when I caught your eye and
For a second we were back in time
But staying mad when life is short is a luxury we can’t afford
I saw the band walk on the stage
Oh yeah
And I don’t know if it’s the beers or the music ringing in my ears
All I know is something’s changed, yeah 

And the crowd was singing Wonderwall
And all the world looked beautiful 
And suddenly I’m back in 93
Before the fights, before the tears
Before the “haven’t talked in years”
If they can work it out then why can’t we?
Ah hoo, ah hoo

Getting high, we were thick as thieves
Always something hidden up our sleeves
At the weekend going raving
Hit the pubs, spend all day blazing
Paranoid about a lack of respect
Words said and we lost our heads
I was taller but you were older
Dumb shit that we never got over
But staying mad when life is short is a luxury we can’t afford
You know the past ain’t worth the pain, no, no
No I don’t know if it’s the beers or the music ringing in our ears
But something here I can’t explain
As the chorus comes again

And the crowd was singing Wonderwall
And all the world looked beautiful 
And suddenly I’m back in 93
Before the fights, before the tears
Before the “haven’t talked in years”
If they can work it out then why can’t we?
Ah hoo, ah hoo
Ah hoo, ah hoo

And the crowd was singing Wonderwall
And all the world looked beautiful 
And suddenly I’m back in 93
The cigarettes and alcohol
The hang-ups when we should have called
If they can work it out then why can’t we?

And the crowd was singing Wonderwall
And all the world looked beautiful 
And suddenly I’m back in 93
Before the fights, before the tears
Before the “haven’t talked in years”
If they can work it out then why can’t we?
