The Dream Academy - The Love Parade Lyrics

Look out of your window 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 she'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 worrying about what he's let himself in for
Hanging in, the heir 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

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 loves
The love parade
Married to someone
Married to someone, woah
Everybody knows
Everybody, everybody
Everywhere knows
That's the way
How it goes
But 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 meet every day, the same cafe (this is dedicated)
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 meet every day, the same cafe (this is dedicated)
To the one I love
This is dedicated, this is dedicated
To the one I love, to the one I love
