The strange young man who comes to me A soldier on a three day spree Who needs one night's cheap ecstasy And a woman's arms to hide him He greets me with a courtly bow And hides his pain by acting proud He drinks too much and he laughs too loud How can I deny him? Let us dance beneath the moon I'll sing to you "Claire de Lune' The morning always comes too soon But tonight the war is over He speaks to me in schoolboy French Of a soldier's life inside a trench Of the look of death and the ghastly stench I do my best to please him He puts two roses in a vase Two roses sadly out of place Like the gallant smile on his haggard face Playfully I tease him Hold me 'neath the Paris skies Let's not talk of how or why Tomorrow's soon enough to die But tonight the war is over We make love too hard too fast He falls asleep, his face a mask He wakes with the shakes and he drinks from his flask I put my arms around him They die in the trenches and they die in the air In Belgium and France the dead are everywhere They die so fast there's no time to prepare A decent grave to surround them Old world glory, old world fame The old world's gone, gone up in flames Nothing will ever be the same And nothing lasts forever Oh I'd pray for him but I've forgotten how And there's nothing, nothing that can save him now There's always another with the same funny bow And who am I to deny them Lux aeterna Luce-at e-is domine cum Sanctic tu-is in aeternum Qui-a pius es requiem aeternaum Dona e-is Domine. Qui-a pius es requiem aeternaum Dona e-is Domine Qui-a pius es et lux perpetua luce-at- e-is Cum Sancris tu-is in Aeternum qui-api-us es Tonight the war is over...

Nadie comprende lo que sufro yo Tanto que ya no puedo sollozar Solo, temblando de ansiedad estoy Todos me miran y se van Mujer, si puedes tú con Dios hablar Pregúntale si yo alguna vez Te he dejado de adorar Al mar, espejo de mi corazón Las veces que me ha visto llorar La perfidia de tu amor Te he buscado por doquiera que yo voy Y no te puedo hallar Para qué quiero tus besos Si tus labios no me quieren ya besar Y tú, quién sabe por dónde andarás Quién sabe qué aventura tendrás Qué lejos estás de mí Te he buscado por doquiera que yo voy Y no te puedo hallar Para qué quiero tus besos Si tus labios no me quieren ya besar Y tú, quién sabe por dónde andarás Quién sabe qué aventura tendrás Qué lejos estás de mí De mí
