After The War

after the guns are silent

After your wounds have healed

After those crosses Have been planted in all those fields

After that long boat ride All the way across the sea

And after this train carries thee Chorus;

I will love you After The War

Ill love you for always, forever more

I will love you

After The War Forever for always and more

After your boots dry

And the tobaccos all but gone

Along with all those postcards

you've carried Under your arm

After I remember All the words I couldn't say

And after this long night fades away

Chorus: I will love you After The War

Ill love you for always, forever more

I will love you After The War Forever for always and more

After this blackbird Lifts up from off your chest

And after your soul takes its final rest My love,

I forgive you You never planned to die And love,

Ill place two pennies over your eyes

Chorus: I will love you After The War I'll love you for always,

forever more I will love you After The War

Forever for always

and more
