When our love is gone, we will be calm
We will be calm
When the feelings come, we will fight them off

In the evening blooms, I still think of you
I'm thinking only of you
But when temptation starts, I will fight it off

Fire! All our guns and arrows
Fire! All our guns
The bells and bombs, we'll fight them off
The fireworks say it's over

Now the fall begins, and our failing hearts
May come apart
But I will be on guard, I will fight it off

Fire! All our guns and arrows
Fire! All our guns
The bells and bombs, we'll fight them off
The fireworks say it's over

Some day, some other life
We'll let this battle pass us by
Some day, some other life
We will be the ones who are left alive

In my weakened state, I could fall for you
Like I fell for you
But lord, when it grows late, I will fight it off

Fire! All our guns and arrows
Fire! All our guns
The bells and bombs, we'll fight them off
The fireworks say it's over
