Life Is Just A Passing Parade

Santana · Oneness: Silver Dreams Golden Realities [1979]

When I was a little boy

I was raised down south in mexico

Nothing ever happened that was new to me

Then one day we saw circus posters on the wall

Suddenly, all my friends and i

We heard a sound

It was loud

Music all around us seemed to make us free

Life is just a passing paradise

Life is just a passing paradise

Everybody started dancing

I never saw so many people having so much fun



Now I'm living in this country

And I have got myself a steady job

I keep seeing people happy everywhere

All I get to do is play my guitar

Come on! everybody get together, have some fun

Come on! everybody get together, have some fun

Life is just a passing paradise

Life is just a passing paradise

Everybody started dancing

I never saw so many people having so much fun
