Song | Parade |
Artist | Matchbox Twenty |
Album | Verona, NY |
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 |
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 |
