Nate Ruess - AhHa (Lyrics)

[Nate Ruess]

Ah ha, ha-ah-ah. Ah ha, ha-ah-ah

Ah ha, ha-ah-ah. Ah ha, ha-ah-ah

Ah ha, ha-ah-ah…

[Verse 1]

Left you, falling on the floor

Headed for the door

Went straight to Philadelphia

Oh no, what have I begun?

Called my mother, said I love her

Had another and another one

Questions, questions, suddenly suggestions

Where was anyone at the start of this thing?

Hold the cold up over your shoulder

All I needs a place to grieve

[Pre-Chorus]

Oh, it’s for the best you didn’t listen

It’s for the best we get our distance (oh oh woah oh)

It’s for the best you didn’t listen

It’s for the best we get our distance

[Chorus]

Oh lord, I feel alive

I've gone and saved my soul

If all that you read is everything you believe

Then let go, then let go, then let go

[Verse 2]

Now I’m over my head

Acting like I never started over again

I am the city I’m from

Always wanting more than just a word on my arm

Oh, I know, I can’t believe

That I'd let it get to me

Good to know I won’t become

Everything I’m afraid of

[Pre-Chorus]

Oh, it’s for the best you didn’t listen

It’s for the best we get our distance (oh oh woah oh)

It’s for the best you didn’t listen

It’s for the best we get our distance

[Chorus]

Oh lord, I feel alive

I've gone and saved my soul

If all that you read is everything you believe

Then let go, then let go, then let go

[Bridge]

Mama don’t cry

I was once your little baby boy

So full of love and light

By the time I turned 25

I was lost among the pavement

Lower than the basement

And I couldn’t stand and smile

I thought of taking my own life

But mama don’t cry

I found songs among the tragic

Hung my hat on sadness

Mom, I think they’re trying to keep the grand romantic in me

Now that we got bottom lines

But mom, I think I’m ready to free this grand romantic in me

La -Di - Da, La -Di - Da, La -Di - Da

Look out, look out!

Ah ha, ha-ah-ah. Ah ha, ha-ah-ah

Ah ha, ha-ah-ah. Ah ha, ha-ah-ah

Ah ha, ha-ah-ah…

[Chorus]

Oh lord, I feel alive

I've gone and saved my soul

If all that you read is everything you believe

Then let go, then let go, then let go

[Chorus]

Oh lord, I feel alive

I've gone and saved my soul

If all that you read is everything you believe

Then let go, then let go, then let go

Ah Ha
