Night Parade — текст песни (The Band)

You got lost in the crowd
The waves of people in Chinatown
Can`t get behind this mystery
Do you believe everything you see

Just a shadow in the streetlight
Just a shadow on the wall
A silhouette, face in the darkness
I`ve been waiting for the call

Chorus:
We`ll go marching in the night parade
We`ll be marching in the night parade

I combed the streets like cloak and dagger
I put the word out on the waterfront
We were living hard, living fast
Outrunning ghosts from the past

Just a shadow in the moonlight
Just a shadow on the wall
A silhouette, the kiss of death
Did somebody take the fall

Chorus

Mary, Mary, Mary I`m knocking on your door
Mary, Mary sanctuary can`t see you no more
From out of the past a stranger came
And carried you away
I stood on the corner, the scene of the crime
And I could here her say

Chorus

We`re living in a street opera
Are we just living in a street opera

Chorus

Walking the night beat
The rhythm of the street
Moving to the heartbeat of the city

Chorus
