The War is Over Now

So this is Christmas,
and what have we done?
Another year over,
and a new one just begun.
And so this is Christmas,
I hope you have fun,
the near and the dear one,
the old and the young.

A very merry Christmas,
and a happy New Year.
Let's hope it's a good one,
without any fear.

And so this is Christmas,
for weak and for strong,
for rich and the poor ones,
the road is so long.

And so happy Christmas,
for black and for white,
for yellow and red ones,
let's stop all the fight.

A very merry Christmas,
and a happy New Year.
Let's hope it's a good one,
without any fear.

And so this is Christmas,
and what have we done?
Another year over,
and a new one just begun.

And so this is Christmas,
I hope you have fun.
The near and the dear one,
the old and the young.
A very merry Christmas,
and a happy New Year.
Let's hope it's a good one,
without any fear.

The war is over
if you want it,
the war is over now!

(John Lennon)
