Lyrics

Parades - Lexi Street

Thought we were forever
Never felt this before
Said you would meet me
By the old general store

But I was left there lonely
With the band marching by
Perhaps that's the reason
Parades make me cry

Maybe that's why
Parades make me cry
The sound of your heart
Beats like a drum line

We played and laid in the grass
Wrote our names in the sky
With a couple of sparklers
And danced under moonlight

Said I was your only
I said you were mine
I never felt so holy
As I did that night

Maybe that's why
Parades make me cry
And warm summer nights
And the Fourth of July
Hot summer days
And cold drinks on ice
And the sound of our hearts
Beat like a drum line

Floats will float on by
Not like love, the love of your life
When it does, it don't feel right
At least people in parades wave goodbye
Bye bye

Maybe that's why
maybe that's why
Parades Make me cry
