Parade Day

The lights up ahead
And the traffic behind
Was it something you said
As I missed a sign

We were so lost
'Til we called a friend
We watched the parade
From a beaten old bench
Up on ascent
Red sky again
Didn't want it to end

We rode down the hill
And weaved through the crowd
Above in the sky
Not a single cloud
Then I felt such rush
When you held my hand
My heart like a drum
In the marching band

Lost track of time
In the whites of your eyes
From the sidelines passing by

While we're here let the band play a song
We'll take our time and we'll do what we want
Yeah
We'll do what we want
Yeah
We'll do what we want

We stayed 'til the end
To the very last float
The band faded out
With a final note
Then we sat in silence
The sun in descent
A night of our lives
We could never forget

Then back on the road
In your blue denim clothes
The city all our own

A moment in time when you're brighter than light
Hotter than fire and you're higher than high
Yeah
The feeling is right
Yeah
The feeling is right

A moment in time when you're brighter than light
Hotter than fire and you're higher than high
Yeah the feeling is right
Yeah the feeling is right
