John, the war is not over
The war my friend
Is not at its end
The war is not over my friend
It lingers in the air
Like music in your mind
The war my friend
Is not at its end
The war is not over my friend
It resides in the hands
Of people with no hearts
The war my friend
Is not at its end
The war is not over my friend
It is still a shame
For some countries all the time
The war is always
In the eyes of the children
'Cause the war is always
In the mind of those men ( with no hearts )
Yes I'm telling you
That the war
Is not over my friend
And i am certain
That this is
Your pain
