The Love Parade

Dream Academy

Look out 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 seranade 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

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 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



Oh the love parade goes on

Even when you're gone

It'll go on forever

The love parade

Only matinee shows

The love parade.
