Parades Go By lyrics

I'll linger here, your ring upon my finger, dear,

And sing till dawn a song of you and me

And what and why

For time is all I have to keep between these walls

And half asleep, the days go by

A million little nights and days go by

And I don't mind

Parades go by

So many beautiful parades go by

Leave me behind, I'll sit and stare

How could I venture anywhere and let the centuries fall

Where they may, but never die

For I have loved and so I lost the world above

Beyond the moss...
