Lyrics

After All

We were talking about the distance
Growing evermore between us
We were wondering if this passage would leave us even more alone
I was waiting for an answer
You were scared to ask the question
I was hoping for a message in the silence of your tongue

CHORUS:
After all, after all
After all is said and done we can’t give up what we’ve done
After all, after all
We can’t bring down that famous curtain, there’s still a song left to be sung

I dreamed I was walking by the water
Shining crystal by the sky
I saw those gleaming yellow gemstones I have loved inside your eyes
Then the echo of your footstep
Brought me out and down the hall
And when I reached the end awakened, I was alone there after all

CHORUS

And that sense of isolation
Is always just inside your mind
You’re always pushing love away, holding your heart behind your back
You’re like a small child with a secret
That you’re not about to share
When you stop guarding all that fear, you’ll find the love was always there
