When the slow parade went past When it felt so good you knew it couldn’t last And all too soon the end was gonna come without a warning And you’d have to just go home
And the way it all went by And somebody said “come on it’s getting late” And you thought the world might end if you just looked the other way And now you wish that you had stayed
And there’s so much more that you could see if you’d 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
Now 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’d 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 You don’t want that parade to leave you now
Yeah There’s so much more that you need to work out Yeah You don’t want that parade to leave you now
