When the Boys Come Home - A La Carte

When the boat comes in

I’ll wait for you

With your little son

With his eyes so blue

'Cause of this war

You’re far away

Come on home to me

Come on home to stay

All the girls in town are so afraid

It’ll be too late and they’ll have to wait

In loneliness till eternity

Come on home to stay

Come on home to me

When the boys come home

From across the sea

They’ll come home for you and me

United we will all survive

You will see when the boys arrive

When the boys come home

From across the land

We’ll be happy then again

And peace will be in every heart

In the hope that will never part

And the times has come

When we should fight

For peace and love and the human rights

If I love you and you love me

Let’s get together

Then let’s all be free

When the boys come home from across the sea

They’ll come home for you and me

United we will all survive

You will see when the boys arrive

When the boys come home from across the land

We’ll be happy then again

And peace will be in every heart

In the hope that will never part

When the boys come home from across the sea

They’ll come home for you and me

United we will all survive

You will see when the boys arrive

When the boys come home from across the land

We’ll be happy then again

And peace will be in every heart

In the hope that will never part
