After the War

[The war is over and the warrior returns to where he belongs...] [Jan:] I saw the shadow decline In another world, another time Reflecting battles full of fear So far away from home Death has been near [Piet:] 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 [Both:] I will return Return to where I belong Where I belong I will be Be with you after this war After this war [Jan:] What I saw beyond the gate Eternal darkness - our fate In everlasting night Deserted and destroyed An empire without light [Piet:] 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 [Both:] I will return... I had to leave it all behind On my way to the other side What to find ? I had to go Into the unknown Through all my fear You have been here Here in my heart [Solo Piet] I will return... Ohh, after the war
