Bedminster Parade Songtext
von War Against Sleep

Bedminster parade
The lights in the arcade
Sparkling and new
For me and for you
I stopped in a doorway
To count up the money
I kept in my coat
Not a single note

And I started to feel
The familiar sensation
My spirits undone
Like father, like son

Nobody watched
When I picked up the cigarette
Damps off the floor
I leaned against the door


On Bedminster parade
I waited for you in the rain
On Bedminster parade
I waited for you in the rain

I rolled up a fat smoke
With liquorice papers
I set it alight
And I breathed in the night
My head was all spinning
And my ears were ringing
As I walked down the road
To my sweet abode

I stumbled into a young maiden
With pretty things tatted on her arms
I meant her no harm
Now I don′t know where I am going
But it is exciting and real
All this love that I feel

On Bedminster parade
I waited for you in the rain
On Bedminster parade
I waited for you in the rain
