After All - Al Jarreau, Metropole Orkest, Vince Mendoza

There, there was a time I knew

That no matter, come what may, love would prevail

And then inside the dreams 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 the 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

And love, the author of space and time

Keeps the galaxies 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

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…
