The War Is Over (Sleepers) (Epilogue) Lyrics & Tabs by Scott Walker
The War Is Over (Sleepers) (Epilogue)
guitar chords lyrics
Everything still
everything silent
as after the rain
We lie here listening
to night close down
Stare like a child
wait for the signs to decide
once again
Just when they looked here
to stay
we're to leave
our world arraign
it really isn't fair
Outside they sing
the war is over
it really isn't fair
Outside they sing
the war is over
raise your blinds
the war is over
tell your deepest dark
goodbye
A distant waltz
turns in the head
of an old lady's night
waiting hands unfold
within the dark
Lighting her lamp
seeing Prince Albert
recalling the sight
they waltz again through the park
floorboards creak
beneath the moon
the room below just sighs
Outside they sing
the war is over
raise your blinds
the war is over
let me get some sleep
tonight
Everything still
everything silent
as after the rain
still we are after
the rain
