The Young Dubliners - In The End lyrics

For all of our wars What have we won We drank up the world Now that we're done Where can we go What have we left A big empty shell In a big empty nest Please don't run don't turn away Children's eyes beg us to stay This time No more strangers only a friend We'll all go together in the end With all of their tears A nation cries We offer them words Talk till they die Where can they go Who can they trust Say that we'll help Then help them we must Please don't run don't turn away Children's eyes beg us to stay This time No more strangers only a friend We'll all go together in the end We're losing time We must be out of our minds hopelessly Floating on by Are we willing to try With all of our will We'll start tonight Pick up the world Set it down right Never too soon Never to late Goes on forever The longer we wait Please don't run don't turn away Children's eyes beg us to stay This time No more strangers only a friend We'll all go together in the end
