War Is Over

Old soldiers talk about the battles fought

To build a better world for me and you

They sacrificed their lives to make a dream come true

Now they're forgotten men remembered by so few

But the war is over and the fighting ended many years ago

The war is over. The battle's won but what is there to show?

Side by side they marched together fighting so their children

Could be free

To build a better world, a new society

All classes unified to live in harmony

Now the war is over so let's forget and leave the past alone

The war is over, it's time for all the soldiers to go home

Rich men, poor men make history

Fighting for the land of hope and glory

A nation's voice will sing as one

A battle cry until we've won

The was is over and the patriotic comrades are no more

The war is over

Now they're going home to live just like before

Arm in arm we sang our patriotic songs of love and sentiment

Tears of joy to hide the sorrow

New tomorrows till we meet again

With a new world to build we'll say auf weidersein

What did they do for us?

What did it prove to us?

As we stand beside the silent grave

The unknown soldier can't be saved

The war is over

The war is over, it's time for all the soldiers to go home

The war is over
