Carpenters:Your Wonderful Parade
From LyricWiki
This song is performed by Carpenters and appears on the album Ticket To Ride (1969).
Your wonderful parade
Moving through the towns that rise and then they fade
Over streets that pass the houses where you've stayed
Your wonderful parade
Your daily masquerade
Paper masks that hide the faces that you made
Crumbled down upon foundations you have laid
Your daily masquerade
Stand in line
Try to climb
Meet your wife at cocktail tome
Sure to lose
So try and choose
A better way to fall
Your marvelous charade
Never could be worth the prices that you paid
Blindness is a part of every game you played
Your marvelous parade
Moving through the towns that rise and then they fade
Over streets that pass the houses where you've stayed
Your wonderful parade
Your daily masquerade
Paper masks that hide the faces that you made
Crumbled down upon foundations you have laid
Your daily masquerade
Stand in line
Try to climb
Meet your wife at cocktail tome
Sure to lose
So try and choose
A better way to fall
Your marvelous charade
Never could be worth the prices that you paid
Blindness is a part of every game you played
Your marvelous parade
