After the last tear falls  After the last secret's told  After the last bullet tears through flesh and bone  After the last child starves  And the last girl walks the boulevard  After the last year that's just too hard    There is love  Love, love, love  There is love  Love, love, love  There is love    After the last disgrace  After the last lie to save some face  After the last brutal jab from a poison tongue  After the last dirty politician  After the last meal down at the mission  After the last lonely night in prison    There is love  Love, love, love  There is love  Love, love, love  There is love    And in the end, the end is  Oceans and oceans  Of love and love again  We'll see how the tears that have fallen  Were caught in the palms  Of the Giver of love and the Lover of all  And we'll look back on these tears as old tales    'Cause after the last plan fails  After the last siren wails  After the last young husband sails off to join the war  After the last "this marriage is over"  After the last young girl's innocence is stolen  After the last years of silence that won't let a heart open    There is love  Love, love, love  There is love    And in the end, the end is  Oceans and oceans  Of love and love again  We'll see how the tears that have fallen  Were caught in the palms  Of the Giver of love and the Lover of all  And we'll look back on these tears as old tales    'Cause after the last tear falls  There is love
