Charlotte Martin - Parade On lyrics

Her hands are in the air again

Stripped of pride

She was waiting for a sign to be let in

She tried to stop a train for him

Without shoes

And he was so amused, amused

She needs a reason to parade on

She needs a new road to pave

She needs a reason to parade on

It's wearing her outsides thin

There's someone there to save

You wonder why she gives and gives

Till it burns

And there is nothing he can give her in return

She'll live and die by make-believe

Her frozen heart

Well he can't wait around while she gets blown apart

She needs a reason to parade on

She needs a new road to pave

She needs a reason to parade on

It's wearing her outsides thin

There's someone there to save

The distance won't know which way you should go

'Cause we are not built so we can float

We are what we are

But that seems so far

Parting the Red Sea is easier, easier

It's time to introduce herself

She's dethroned

Like some lonesome dusty book upon his shelf

She needs a reason to parade on

She needs a new road to pave

She needs a reason to parade on

It's wearing her outsides thin

There's someone there to save, oh

And there's nothing I can say
