The War Is Over (Sleepers Epilogue)

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 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
