You gone 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 your call

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, shadow on the wall

A silhouette, the kiss of death

Did somebody take the fall?

We'll go marching in the night parade

We'll be marching in the night parade

Oh 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 hear her say

We'll be marching in the night parade

We'll be marching, marching in the night parade

We'll go marching, marching on the, in the night parade

We'll go marching, marching in the night parade

In the night parade

Are we all living in a street opera?

Are we just living in a street opera?

Oh we'll be marching, oh oh in the night parade

Oh Lord, we'll be marching, marching out in the night parade

In the night parade

Walking the night beat the rhythm of the street

Moving to the heartbeat of the city, the city

Walking the night beat the rhythm of the street

Moving to the heartbeat of the city, the city

Way downtown

Moving to the heartbeat of the city

We'll be marching in the night parade

We'll be marching in the night parade

We'll be marching in the night parade
