Start the parade as the sky turns grey You know how to float and where to pin bouquets There's no time to spend on waiting 'Cause I won't die another death And this helps me to forget That I am sold for sale at the buyer's price There's fires down in paradise You should hold me higher than my lying eyes I may love you 'till the day I die ♪ Strike the gavel down to sell me out For I was sold so very long ago In time you'll understand it's raining always And we can't die another death So please helps me to forget Please forget That I am sold for sale at the buyer's price There's fires down in paradise You should hold me higher than my lying eyes I may love you 'till the day I die ♪ 'Cause the bird cried tired when she was walking up the hill If she only knew If she only knew That I'm sold for sale at a buyer's price There's fires down where you think twice You can hold me higher than these lying eyes I may love you 'till the day I die You can hold me higher than these lying eyes I will love you 'till the day I die
