lyrics

Parasol

Red and yellow and Orange Li
Members of the aristocracy will call
But not without a parasol

Carriage ride with the fringes and frills
Down to the river
Just across the hills with you
And your parasol of blue

Albert and Queen Victoria
Picnic on the scene as the
King and queen of it all
A top hat and a parasol

When people stare
At the sunshine in your hair
In love we’ll fall, behind your parasol

Monkey on a leash and a dog named J
Satin dress and a bustier she sighs
Looking at the sail boat skies

Beads of glass and a silver lever
English silk and a peacock feather
Needlework and raffia

Summer dress and shadows long
You and I in a silhouette and song
Right behind your parasol

When people stare
At the sunshine in your hair
In love we’ll fall, behind your parasol

BREAK
LEAD

Sovereigns, priests, and diplomats
Walking sticks and velvet hats so tall
And a princess with a parasol

You never miss the water
Till the well runs dry
I wanna be a kite and
I wanna fly away
Flying on a windy day
Flying on a windy day
Flying on a windy day

When people stare
At the sunshine in your hair
In love we’ll fall,
Behind your parasol
