Instead of What We Lost Lyrics by Danielle Ate the Sandwich

10 for 24 (2025)

2025

[Verse 1]
Sittin' in the break room
Mindin' my business
Waitin' for the shift-end
Chewin' my gum
Lookin' for a reason
To get into trouble
'Cause it's a full moon, baby
And tonight, I'm havin' fun
[Chorus 1]
Hey yeah
To the people who couldn't make the party
Hey yeah (Hey yeah, hey yeah)
To the flamingos on the lawn
Hey yeah (Hey yeah, hey yeah)
To the hurdles and the hard times
Let's think of all the good things
Instead of what we lost
[Verse 2]
Dressed in a bowtie
For my bar mitzvah
Sittin' in thе limo
Feelin' like I wanna run
I don't like peoplе
And I don't like dancin'
But it's a full moon, baby
And tonight, I'm havin' fun
[Chorus 2]
Hey yeah
To the shy ones, the wispy wallflowers
Hey yeah (Hey yeah, hey yeah)
To the chances that we lost
Hey yeah (Hey yeah, hey yeah)
To the hurdles and the hard times
Let's think of all the good things
Instead of what we lost
[Bridge]
And instead of all we're dreading (Ooh)
Let's remember what we love (Ooh)
And instead of all the heartbreak we've been having (Ooh)
Let's have some fun (Fun, fun, fun)
[Verse 3]
Got to the party
Stood by the punch bowl
Sweat on my palms
Feelin' kinda dumb
Then I remembered
That life is a dancefloor
And it's a full moon, baby
And tonight, I'm havin' fun
[Chorus 3]
Hey yeah
To the people who figured out the answer
Hey yeah (Hey yeah, hey yeah)
To the pennies that we tossed
Hey yeah (Hey yeah, hey yeah)
To the hurdles and the hard times
Let's think of all the good things
Instead of what we lost
[Chorus 4]
Hey yeah
To the people, for all the days we've gone by
Hey yeah (Hey yeah, hey yeah)
To the paths that we have crossed
Hey yeah (Hey yeah, hey yeah)
To the hurdles and the hard times
Let's think of all the good things
Instead of what we've lost
Let's think about the good things
Instead of what we've lost
