If the Sun Will ShineWhen Was the War lyrics by The Honey Dewdrops
When was the war I know, I know
that's where my husband was called to go
Didn't need no priest, wasn't laid down below
but he didn't come home the boy I used to know.
I watch him at night, he sleeps through his dreams.
Many of the nights tremors convene.
I don't hardly know who can be where he been,
who's not pining away or languishing.
When was the war I know, I know
written on the page of a book to never close.
When was the war I know, I know
caught in this mud and moving so slow.
I know there ain't nobody in this whole wide world
who can stay still so long and never get hurt.
I watch him so silent sleep through his dreams
black hole sleep a violent stream.
When was the war I know, I know
sooner or later we all come to know.
When was the war I know, I know
sooner or later we all come to know.
