Sweetheart on Parade - Judy Collins

Everybody loves to love

The local girl made good

Surely I’d find peace of mind

If anybody could

Still at times I find myself

Wishing they were right

If everybody loves me

Where are they tonight?

Everybody loves to love

The sweetheart on parade

Out there on the stage tonight

The girl who’s got it made

But after the applause is gone

I sometimes wish I knew

Why everybody loves me

And I love only you

Haven’t I got all the things success alone can give?

Wouldn’t everybody love to lead the life I live?

All I need is someone I can share it with

But how they love to love

The golden girl next door

Up there with her name in lights

Now who could ask for more?

Still I can’t help wondering

Why it should be true

That everybody loves me

Everyone but you

Haven’t I got all the things success alone can give?

Wouldn’t everybody love to lead the life I live?

All I need is someone I can share it with

Everybody loves me, everyone but you
