Jarreau Al - After All lyrics

There, there was a time I knew

That no matter come what may, love would prevail.

Then, inside the dream, I knew

Came the question lovers fear, Can true love fail?

Then I would miss the childhood wish and haven't I sung to you

Of a knight in armor bright, faithful and true to you, darling,

After all, I will be the one to hold you in my arms

After all, I will be the one to hold you

I will be the one to hold you in my arms, in my arms.

I know in my heart and mind

that no matter come what may, love will survive.

Love, the author of space and time.

Keeps the violins and each sparrow alive.

And the love that heals the wound after the war is through

Is the knight in armor bright, faithful and true to you.

After all, I will be the one to hold you in my arms

After all, I will be the one to hold you

I will be the one to hold you in my arms, in my arms.

Don't you know

After all, I will be the one to hold you in my arms

Telling you

After all, I will be the one to hold you in my arms, in my arms
