Parade

When the slow parade went past
But it felt so good you knew it couldn't last
Well all too soon the end is gonna come without a warning
And you have to just go home
And the way it all went by
When somebody said “come on its getting late”
And you thought the world might end if you just look the other way
Now you wish that you had stayed
And there's so much more that you could see if you just stick around
And all the streetlight secrets whispering for you to come back out
Oh, no, there's so much more that you need to work out
Oh, no, you don't want that parade to leave you now
And now
And the days are all the same
In a town so big that no one knows your name
And the people fade away
And all the stars are just a flicker and you're left there all alone
When there's so much more that you could see if you just stick around
And all the streetlight secrets whispering for you to come back out
Oh, no, there's so much more that you need to work out
Oh, no, you don't want that parade to leave you now
When the music's over but the song stays in your head
Oh, no, there's so much more that you need to work out
Oh, no, and you don't want that parade to leave you now
Well there's so much more that you need to work out
And you don't want that parade to leave you now
