terence boylan - the war was over lyrics

{verse 1}
the lanterns hung and chandeliers
danced across the sky
and everybody told me how they knew you’d take his side
and as we lеft the music faded
madness growing dim
you wеre looking back at him

{chorus}
it was like the war was over and we danced the night around
ah the war was over and we danced the night around

{verse 2}
the month of may had come and gone
the tennis courts at noon
the summer lay before him
like a carribean moon
and the music through the window played
we were almost out of school
i behaved just like a fool
{verse 3}
and the road into the village was
a palace in the night
and the mansion on the river
was the most amazing sight
the dresses billowed laughter rang
across the blowing lawn
and the night was almost gone

{chorus}
it was like the war was over and we danced the night around
ah the war was over and we danced the night around

{verse 4}
the lights were dim in paradise
and athens lost her moon
the irish king and his royal house
had come and gone too soon
the shore watch gathered around the fire
they knelt as if to pray
they were bound to find a way

{refrain verse}
we were hanging from the garden wall
the night was green and wise
and as the moon burned through the trees
the truth was in your eyes
you were going to tell me how it was
you were going to tell me why
and the air was sweet with lies
{chorus}
it was like the war was over and we danced the night around
ah the war was over and we danced the night around
