In a Crowd of Thousands
It was June
- It was June
- I was ten
- I still think of that day now and then
- A parade and a girl
- And a crowd of thousands
- She sat straight
- As a queen
- Only eight but so proud and serene
- How they cheered
- How I stared
- In that crowd of thousands
- And I started to run
- And to call out her name
- As the crowd on the road went wild
- I reached out with my hand
- And moved up
- And then she smiled
- The parade travelled on
- With a sun in my eyes she was gone
- But if I were still ten
- In that crowd of thousands
- I'd find her again
- A parade
- A parade
- Passing by
- Passing by
- It was hot not a cloud in the sky
- Then a boy
- Caught my eye
- In the crowd of thousands
- He was thin
- Not too clean
- There were guards but he dodged in between
- Yes he made himself seen
- In that crowd of thousands
- And he called out my name
- And he started to run
- Through the sun and the heat and crowd
- And I tried not to smile
- But I smiled
- And then he bowed
- The parade travelled on
- With a sun in my eyes you were gone
- But I knew even then
- In a crowd of thousands
- I'd find you again
