When the war is over
Will I even know?
Will there be a poster
A billboard saying
“Time to head on home”?
Oh, when the war is over
Will it feel like hope?
Will freedom feel like treason now?
‘Cause war is all I know
When the war is over
Will I even know?
When the war is over
Will flowers line my way right back to you?
Oh, will we be like strangers
Irrevocably changed to something new
Oh, when the war is over
Will I know it’s true?
Will I wake up every night
Forgetting I’m still next to you?
When the war is over, mm
Will I even know?
I’ve been waiting for so long
I’ve been holding out hope
I’ve been carrying your picture
In the pocket of my coat
Oh, I’ve been ready to fight
I’ve been ready to flee
Only wish I could remember
How to live in peace
So when the war is over
Don’t send me a parade
Usher me in stillness
Disarm me of the weight
Oh, when the war is over
Maybe I can try
To be less of a soldier
And a bit more like a child
When the war is over
Oh, when the war is over
