Will You?

Will you love me like you used to
When we have defeated them
When the bombs and mortars stop
When the soldiers can go Home

Will you love me when the wars end
When the thunder goes away
When we can restore the children
To their parents fair that day

Will you love me when the story
Can be told that us did test
When the rhyme and reason comes back
To our town and we can rest

Will you love me, will you, will you
Will you love me true and mean it
Will you love me in the morning
And the evening when we're blest

Will you love me in the twilight
Will you love me in the day
Will you love me when the time comes
For us to be sent away

Will you love me, will you, will you
When we have to march away
Will you love me what 'ere happens
Or will you go when I must stay
