From the recording Start With A Prayer
Lyrics
Ann was a polish Jew , a holocaust survivor
She showed us her tattoo, she spoke of her bunk partner...
Who one day while in line, gave her a strawberry
And though she saw many die, iIt was this vision she’d carry
What can they say?
What can they do to us now?
Do to us now
Madeline lost Martha a few short months ago
When she ran back into the burning house to save their old dog Bo...
They’d lived together for years , that dog and two lonely old maids
But behind quiet Madeline’s tears is a love that never fades
What can they say?
What can they do to us now?
Do to us now
You’re gone but I will stay
They can’t get through to us now
Through to us now.
Mark has a ticket for two today they’d bought it just last year
But he watched his lover fade away now he’s wondering why he’s here...
But soon he begins to hear it the choir sings of joy and of pain
The room of people glows with spirit and he feels alive again
