Lyrics

And af ter all’s

If you should find

and speak to me,

I’d nev er keep

you from your (C)fi nal des ti (G)ny, so car ry on.

If you should find

In to the (F)qui et I am bound.

What you have lost,

In to the (F)qui et I am bound.

What you have lost,

And now that all’s been said and done,

who said it best?

Were you the one?

Let’s just for (C)get, leave it be (G)hind and car ry on.

Let’s just for get, leave it be (G)hind and car ry on.
