If I came back just a cripple from the war

Would you hold me close

Just like you did before

And what in the world would you do

If I could not make love to you

The question is not

Whether the freedom we've got

Is worth the consequence of war

The question is just can I hold you at dusk

Without you asking me for more

A post-war eunuch

A lover that is lame

Some famous hero and one shares his name

But where in the world would I go

You're all that I love and all I know

The question is plain

Could our love still remain

Without it's carnal ecstasy

Yeah yeah yeah yeah

And who in the world would I be

If I lose all of you and half of me

Oh
