The War's Over...
Kissing The War Goodbye

I heard your name the other day
And I couldn't fight away the smile
I slipped to the back of my mind, to some dusty dreams
And I lit up as the tears came down
And then I saw you backing away

I don't know what you want
But I'll do my best to give it to you
I don't know what to say
So I'll be quiet
If we could just agree
Maybe we could kiss the war goodbye
I just want to know that you are happy

And all I'm really asking
Is to see you smile once again
Even through all the pain
I could bear it another day

All the stormy nights are gone
All the nasty things we've said and done
All the pain, all the angst
All the shots we've taken
All of it can go away, one day

I don't know what you want
But I'll do my best to give it to you
I don't know what to say
So I'll be quiet
If we could just agree
Maybe we could kiss this war goodbye
I just want to know that you are happy
My best dreams were not lost
They just followed right along with you
They were all meant for you
They're just waiting for a happy ending

Tempers rise
How much longer will we do this?
Time goes by
And I can't stand it
Why can't we
Just sit down and talk about it
What you need
Please just tell me

Not a minute wasted
Nothing said could ever take it away
Not a lost memory
None the pain could ever erase

I don't know what you want
But I'll do my best to give it to you
I don't know what to say
So I'll be quiet
If we could just agree
Maybe we could kiss this war goodbye
I just want to know that you are happy
