INTRO (4 times)      VERSE 1   I got a letter from Louise   she says that things are getting better   Theres more life on the streets   since the calling of the ceasefire   People are going out more   all the pubs are jumping   Every one is trying   and they're hopeful for the future      CHORUS   And the guns are locked away now   please God, I don't care whose God   I hope they're locked away forever      VERSE 2   She says shes keeping busy   and theres loads of things for doing   Shes moved into a new house   and times just flying by   She says I should come up again   maybe for the weekend   she says they're throwing a party   that'll last beyond the dawn      CHORUS      VERSE 3   Halloween is on the way she says   she writes about the harvest moon   She says it will be lucky   with its feeling of re-birth   And I'm going up to see her   for the first time since the ceasefire   I'll pack my melodies and poetry   and place them in her arms      CHORUS   END
