When War is but Past
We hope and we pray
That the day will come at last
When war is but past
The scars may linger
But at least we will live free
No more fear of death
That is what I hope
For both of us, you and me
So put the guns down
There is more to gain
I see more for us than pain
Let something go free
Give up the hatred
That is what holds us all back
Peace is what we lack
Again I say please
Forget the fights of the past
Because together
We can put an end
To the wars that seem to last
If not today please
Tomorrow at last
Could we finally see it
When war is but past
