Verse 1
I came in late when the lights were low,
with a broken smile from a long ago.
You stood there shining in a coat of white,
like a secret star in the velvet night.
The band was playing something sweet,
piano thunder under dancing feet.
I told myself I would not stay,
but your eyes made the whole world sway.
Pre-Chorus
Oh-oh, I knew better,
oh-oh, but I lost control.
You were a golden letter
written straight into my soul.
Chorus
Silver heart parade,
we are dancing through the rain.
Laughing while the music plays,
hiding every little pain.
Silver heart parade,
let the midnight carry on.
We were made of dreams and tears,
but tonight we shine like dawn.
Verse 2
The mirror ball was spinning fast,
throwing diamonds on the past.
You said, “Tomorrow we may fall,”
but tonight we can have it all.
A little magic, a little lie,
a little sadness in your eye.
And every step across the floor
made me want you even more.
Pre-Chorus
Oh-oh, I should leave you,
oh-oh, but the night says no.
Every time I try to free you,
my heart won’t let you go.
Chorus
Silver heart parade,
we are dancing through the rain.
Laughing while the music plays,
hiding every little pain.
Silver heart parade,
let the midnight carry on.
We were made of dreams and tears,
but tonight we shine like dawn.
Bridge
La-la-la, the stars are crying,
la-la-la, our love is flying.
Even if the morning breaks us,
let the music come and save us.
Final Chorus
Silver heart parade,
we are dancing through the rain.
Laughing while the music plays,
hiding every little pain.
Silver heart parade,
let the midnight carry on.
We were made of dreams and tears,
but tonight we shine like dawn.
Outro
Silver hearts, silver lights,
one more dance, one more night.
Silver hearts, don’t fade away,
lead me through the heart parade.
