Fool's Parade - Tyrone Wells

Like the summer breeze,

She came as a surprise and danced with me.

And as we spun around,

I lost my feet, fell lovesick on the ground.

CHORUS:

Each time I’ve believed

Love has proved to be

A fool’s parade,

Lost in this masquerade.

Marching in line, trying hard to keep time with my broken heart beat.

Fool’s parade, cries the band as it plays

And love makes it’s retreat,

Every step of my feet sends it away.

Hear the crowd point and say, «it's a fool’s parade.»

Lyin' next to me,

I would hold her close and listen to her breathe.

One dark morning she was gone,

Found out I had played the fool all along.

CHORUS

How I wish I could believe

When a princess waves at me That my true love has been found.

But someone’s always just behind

To get the wave I thought was mine.

I always play a clown

In this fool’s parade.

Lost in this masquerade,

Marching in line, trying hard to keep time with this broken heart beat.

Fool’s parade, the band cries as it plays

And love makes it’s retreat,

Every step of my feet sends it away.

Hear the crowd point and say, «it's a fool’s parade.»

See a fool’s parade.
