.
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 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 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
And you don't want that parade to leave you now
.
