Afterlife, oh my God, what an awful word
After all the breath and the dirt and 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 to the dead light of the afterglow
I've got to know...
Can we work it out?
If we scream and shout till we work it out
Can we just work it out?
If we scream and shout till we work it out?
Till we work it out, till we work it out
Till we work it out, till 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
After all the hangers-on are done hanging on to the dead light of the afterglow
I've got to know...
Can we work it out
If we scream and shout till we work it out?
Can we just work it out
If we scream and shout till 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
That had nothing at all to do with life
I've got to know...
Can we work it out
If we scream and shout till we work it out
Can we just work it out
If we scream and shout till 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, when love is gone, where did it go?
Oh, when love is gone, 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
