Lyrics
When All Is Said
When all is said and done
When there is nowhere else to run
Why don’t you join with me
And let some birds fly free
We can feel the shame
Of what the world
has done in our name
Let the pebbles roll
We already paid the toll
When all is said and done
When all is said and done
No more games to win or lose
When all is said and done
No battles left to choose
When all is said and done
When we are all gone
When all your chips are sand
And you have
played your final hand
Whatever comes your way
Another sun rising each day
Walls are coming down
Only time will tell
Who will drown
Put your mind at rest
No doubt you did your best
When all is said and done
When all is said and done
No more games to win or lose
When all is said and done
No battles left to choose
When all is said and done
When we are all gone
Beyond the finish line
A postscript to our deeds
A medal in the hall
The shine is gone
It’s covered in dust
Echoes off the walls
Some message from the past
My words when all is spoken
I won’t forget you!
