A La Carte - When The Boys Come Home

When the boat comes in, I'll wait for you
With your little son, with his eyes so blue,
Cause of this war you're far away,
Come on home to me, come on home to stay.

All the girls in town are so afraid
It'll be too late and they'll have to wait
In loneliness till eternity,
Come on home to stay, come on home to me.

When the boys come home from across the sea
They'll come home for you and me,
United we will all survive,
You will see when the boys arrive.
When the boys come home from across the land
We'll be happy then again,
And peace will be in every heart
In the hope that will never part.

And the times has come when we should fight
For peace and love and the human rights,
If I love you and you love me
Let's get together then let's all be free.

[2x:]
When the boys come home from across the sea
They'll come home for you and me,
United we will all survive,
You will see when the boys arrive.
When the boys come home from across the land
We'll be happy then again,
And peace will be in every heart
In the hope that will never part.
