The Love Parade (LP Version)

Look out of your window on any day

From June to September, the love parade's

Out on the street where you live and you know

It's just a matter of time before it takes over

They've been married for so many years

Now a young love serenade blows

Sweet nothing in her ear

They're lonely together when they're not apart

It feels like he's holding on to someone else in the dark

Oh, the love parade is on

Even against all odds

It'll go on forever

The love parade

The love parade

Only matinee shows

The love parade

But if he could put himself into a different skin

He'd be worryin' about what he let himself in for

Hangin' in the air, apparent

A point of view, almost transparent

So you sold your soul for a pocket full of sweet talk

Forget-me-not kisses at the end of a slow walk

And when it's done, you put your world back on

'Cause she's otherwise engaged

Married to someone, whoa

Oh, the love parade goes on

Even when you're gone

It'll go on forever

The love parade

The love parade

Only matinee shows

The love parade

Everybody knows the love parade

Married to someone

Married to someone, whoa

Only matinee shows

Everybody knows

Everybody, everybody

Everybody, everywhere knows

That's all

How it goes

This is dedicated

To the one I love

To the one I love

This is dedicated

This is dedicated

To the one I love

To the one I love

We'll meet every day

This is dedicated

In the same café

To the one I love

This is dedicated

This is dedicated

To the one I love

To the one I love

This is dedicated

This is dedicated

To the one I love

To the one I love

We'll meet every day

This is dedicated

In the same café

To the one I love

This is dedicated

This is dedicated

To the one I love

To the one I love
