Just Another Parade

Yesterday's news is tomorrow's blues

But today I am alive

(I am alive)

Today I did much more than survive

I learned to live by the love I give

It's the only thing I own

Shadowed valleys that I've known

Helped me build my home

So tell me why?

Why should I be afraid?

(Why should you be afraid?)

We've seen better

We've seen darker days

So tell me why?

Why should I be afraid?

(Why should you be so afraid?)

Sittin' here watching just another parade

Just another parade

Summer will end, then the death begins

Grandma's hands are moving slow

She takes the time to let me know

Winter's winds will blow

Will blow

She said look at your sun, he's a golden one

Makes you turn your pages slow

Is life more precious than we know?

Every day unfolds

(Every day)

So tell me why?

Why should I be afraid?

(Why should you be so afraid?)

I've seen brighter, seen darker days

So tell me why?

Why should I be afraid?

(Why should I be so afraid?)

Sittin' here watching

It's just another parade

Just another parade

Just another parade

Just another parade

So tell me why

Why are you so afraid?

Why should I be afraid?

When you know we've seen brighter

We've seen darker days

So tell me why, why should I be afraid?

Why should you be afraid?

Sittin' here watchin' it's just another parade

Tell me why should I be afraid?

I've seen better I've seen darker days

Tell me why, why should I be afraid?

Sittin' here watchin' it's just another parade
