This will be my last anti-war song
Really, I have nothing left to say
We can find a quiet spot to talk about the past
All the things we’ve shared along the way
But this will be my last anti-war song
Nowadays it’s someone else’s fight
Once upon a time we sang of peace and harmony
Still the bombs and rockets light the night
So this will be my last anti-war song
I’m tired of gunsmoke blowing in the wind
Names pile up on walls and fields keep sprouting monuments
The killing and destruction never end.
But you and I can spend some time together
You and I can maximize our days
You and I can cherish every moment
Making time to sing and laugh and love and play…every day.
This will be my last anti-war song
The time has come to sing its final verse
Always we’ll remember, was it only yesterday
The spirit and the acts behind the words.
You and I can spend some time together
You and I can maximize our days
You can I can cherish every moment
But this will be my last anti-war song.
Really, I have nothing left to say

But you and I can spend some time together
You and I can maximize our days
You and I can cherish every moment

You and I can spend some time together
You and I can maximize our days
You can I can cherish every moment
But this will be my last anti-war song.
