Afterlife

Oh my God, what an awful word

After all the breath, and the dirtAnd the fires are burnt

And after all this time

And after all the ambulances go

And after all the hangers-on are done hanging on

In the dead light of the afterglow

I′ve gotta know

Can we work it out?

We scream and shout 'til we work it out

Can we just work it out?

Scream and shout ′til we work it out

'Til we work it out, 'til we work it out

′Til we work it out, ′til we work it out

Afterlife

I think I saw what happens next

Oh, it was just a glimpse of you, like looking through a window

Or a shallow sea

Could you see me?

And after all this time

It's like nothing else we used to know

And after all the hangers-on are done hanging on

In the dead light of the afterglow

I′ve gotta know

Can we work it out?

We scream and shout 'til we work it out

Can we just work it out?

We scream and shout ′til we work it out

But you say

Oh, when love is gone

Where does it go?

And you say

Oh, when love is gone

Where does it go?

And where do we go?

Where do we go?

Where do we go?

Where do we go?

Where do we go?

Where do we go?

Where do we go?

Where do we go?

And after this

Can it last another night?

After all the bad advice

Had nothing at all to do with life

I've gotta know

Can we work it out?

We scream and shout ′til we work it out?

Can we just work it out?

We scream and shout 'til we work it out?

But you say

Oh, when love is gone

Where does it go?

And you say

Oh, when love is gone

Where does it go?

Oh, we know it's gone

But where did it go?

Oh, we know it′s gone

But where did it go?

And where do we go?

Is this the afterlife?

It′s just an afterlife with you

It's just an afterlife

It′s just an afterlife with you

It's just an afterlife
