After All - Pet Shop Boys, Neil Tennant, Chris Lowe

If you didn’t really understand the rules

If you didn’t even know the score

How come we went to war?

How come we went to war?

People are living now

inside their memories

How much we’ve all believed

and how we’ve been deceived

Time runs out

we all start dying

after all

If you didn’t really understand the cause

If you didn’t even pause for thought

How come we went to war?

How come we went to war?

People are falling down

becoming memories

Some day we’ll all be grieved

too late to be relieved

Time runs out

we all start dying

after all

after all

after all

after all

I know the time will come

Just wait and see

Change is no obstacle

we can agree

Heaven is possible after all

Heaven is possible

after all

after all
