1
Here by my window in Germany
2
A morning bird flies close to me
3
On his wing I see a yellow star
4
The lights are on in the factory
5
The frost is hung on the linden tree
6
And I remember where we are
7
And I remember the holocaust
8
I remember all we lost
9
The families torn and the borders crossed
10
And I sing of it now for Sasha
11
A young German officer lies in his bed
12
Bandages from toe to head
13
A prisoner of the camps draws nigh
14
If you are Abel and I am Cain
15
Forgive me from my bed of pain
16
I know not why we die
17
It was I who ordered the building burned
18
The job was over and as I turned
19
A father and his son
20
Caught in the flames high above the ground
21
From cradled arms the boy looked down
22
One leap and their lives were done
23
And I remember the holocaust
24
I remember all we lost
25
The children gone and the borders crossed
26
And I sing of it now for Sasha
27
You in frozen streets of Heidelberg
28
Your youth unbearded takes form in words
29
And the ghosts of the past are kind
30
For this was your university
31
The years were long but the spirits free
32
And your river runs to the Rhine
33
The smoke filled taverns that you once roamed
34
With the discontented who'd stayed at home
35
You must have whiskey or you'll die
36
The beer garden under the old chateau
37
Our faces now in the candle glow
38
See the memories how they shine
39
But you remember the holocaust
40
You remember all we lost
41
The families torn and the borders crossed
42
And we'll sing of it now for Sasha
