Accompaniment by James Pitt-Payne:
Lyrics
- All alone I stand
Looking out my window
While sweethearts hand in hand
Go laughing by my window
It seems just like they’re passing in review
And as they pass they make me feel so blue
Chorus
Two by two, they go marching thru
The sweethearts on parade
I can’t help cry, as they pass me by
The sweethearts on parade
I’d love to join their fun but they bar me
‘Cause it takes more than one to join their army
How I pine, just to fall in line
With the sweethearts on parade
- All my skies are grey
And I’m oh! so lonesome
Cause every single day
Just finds me by my own-some
And as I see those sweethearts bill and coo
I wonder if my dreams will e’er come true
