Perfect song except for the sha-la-la-la part. I cringe every time.
My interpretation of the "sha-la-la-la-la" part:
The character has lost hope of his lover returning to him. He has even lost hope of her returning a letter. His thoughts are of hope that she will return a letter, but then his thoughts get so desperate and dismayed, "sha-la-la-la-la" is all can think to mutter.
These are just my thoughts. You are welcome to disagree. By the way, I love Tears in Vain.
