After All - John Wetton

After all your day is done

Time for sleep, the night time’s come

Hopes and dreams are reborn

In the quiet of your room

After all the songs are sung

All the actors come and gone

The stage is dark and empty

But one candle burns alone

After all the pain has gone

How can I forget, your memory goes on

After all your pain has gone

My life goes on

All the wounds you held inside

And your stubborn sense of pride

Take the love we feel for you

Try to help us understand

If the wish were left to me

This final act would never be

You give wings to our hearts

And our thoughts are with you now

After all the pain is gone

Only memories linger on

After all the pain is gone

Has gone is gone

After all the pain has gone

And in the darkness, when I call

Tell me please, that there is light, after all
