The Love Parade Lyrics

Artist: Dream Academy
Album: 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.

I always loved Life in a Northern Town and looked up the rest of Dream Academys work and loved this song. Thanks for the lyrics.

Hey Wendy!
life in a northern town has always been my favorite from Dream Academy up til 2008, they played this song on a local Montreal rock station and I can't get enough of playing it over an over. Thanks

I truly love this song. the beat and the lyrics are awesome..The dream Academy is one of the most unsung bands during the 80's and the 90's. I love all thier songs!
