After the War

I saw the shadow decline
 In another world, another time
 Reflecting battles full of fear
 (So) far away from home
 Death has been near
 I fought for liberty and faith
 For survival of our race
 The toll of blood it has been high
 The dead will never see again
 The sun up in the sky
 I will return
 Return to where I belong
 Where I belong
 I will be
 Be with you after this war
 After this war
 What I saw beyond the gate
 Eternal darkness - our fate
 In everlasting night
 Deserted and destroyed
 An empire without light
 The flame of hope kept me alive
 The iron will survive
 I did the things I had to do
 And in my very soul
 I've always been with you
 I will return
 Return to where I belong
 Where I belong
 I will be
 Be with you after this war
 After this war
 I had to leave it all behind
 On my way to the other side
 What to find?
 (I had to go) I had to go
 (Into the unknown) Intp the unknown
 (through all my fear) Through all my fear
 (You have been here)
 Here in my heart
 I will return
 Return to where I belong
 Where I belong
 I will be
 Be with you after this war
 After this war
 Ohh, after the war
