The Silent Parade 歌詞

The soldiers came marching home
The soldiers came marching home
The streets were silent
Not a single drum
As the soldiers came marching home

It had all gone on too long
No one remembered how it started
No one believed it had ended
But they all watched the silent parade
They all watched the silent parade

The afternoon people were there [people were there]
No confetti filled the air [filled the air]
Each one tended their private cares wondering
Is it over again
Is it over again

Is it over again

No one watched the news
Read the papers of the day
Folks were staring out of windows
Nobody shouted hooray

It had all gone on too long
No one remembered how it started
No one believed it had ended
But they all watched the silent parade
They all watched the silent parade
