[00:00.00]War Is Over - The Kinks
[00:06.35]Old soldiers talk about the battles fought
[00:11.26]To build a better world for me and you
[00:17.70]They sacrificed their lives to make a dream come true
[00:24.94]Now they're forgotten men remembered by so few
[00:33.41]But the war is over
[00:37.09]And the fighting ended many years ago
[00:41.00]The war is over
[00:44.77]The battle's won but what is there to show
[00:48.64]Side by side they marched together fighting
[00:53.42]So their children could be free
[00:58.61]To build a better world a new society
[01:05.86]All classes unified to live in harmony
[01:13.55]Now the war is over
[01:18.28]So let's forget and leave the past alone
[01:21.85]The war is over
[01:25.50]It's time for all the soldiers to go home
[01:37.04]Rich men poor men make history
[01:40.88]Fighting for the land of hope and glory
[01:44.44]A nation's voice will sing as one
[01:51.84]A battle cry until we've won
[02:14.08]The war is over
[02:17.65]And the patriotic comrades are no more
[02:21.47]The war is over
[02:25.08]Now they're going home to live just like before
[02:28.99]Arm in arm we sang our patriotic songs of love and sentiment
[02:40.35]Tears of joy to hide the sorrow
[02:44.17]New tomorrows till we meet again
[02:49.70]With a new world to build we'll say auf weidersein
[02:57.07]What did they do for us
[03:01.45]What did it prove to us
[03:05.04]As we stand beside the silent grave
[03:08.14]The unknown soldier can't be saved
[03:13.01]The war is over
[03:21.09]The war is over
[03:24.75]It's time for all the soldiers to go home
[03:35.77]The war is over
