After the guns are silent After your wounds have healed After those crosses been planted in all those After that long boat all the way across the sea And after this train carries thee
I will love you after the war Love for always, forever more I will love you after the war Forever, for always and more
After your boots and the tobacco is all but gone Along with all those cards you’ve carried under your arm After I remember all the words I could not say And this long night fades away
I will love you after the war Love you for always, forever more will love you after the war Forever, for always and more
After this lifts from up off your chest And after your soul takes its final rest My love I forgive you, you never planned to die And love place two pennies over your eyes
I will love you after the war Love you for always, forever more I will love after the war Forever, for always and more
