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 When somebody said "come on its 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 just stick around And all the street light 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 the days are all the same And the town so big and no one knows your name And the people fade away And all 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 street light 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
