歌詞
[Verse 1]
But I'm alive Kitty,
I'm alive – and that’s the main thing!
[Verse 2]
I feel wicked sleeping in a warm bed
while my dearest friends have been knocked down
or have fallen into the gutter somewhere out in the cold night.
[Verse 3]
No one is spared – old people, babies,
expectant mothers, the sick
– each and all join in the march of death.
[Verse 4]
It is terrible outside
– day and night, more of those poor, miserable people
are being dragged off.
Children, coming home from school
find that their parents have disappeared.
Women return from shopping
to find their homes shut up and their families gone ...
[Verse 5]
And every night hundreds of planes fly over Holland
and go to German towns
where the earth is plowed up by their bombs,
and every hour hundreds and thousands of people
are killed in Russia and Africa.
No one is able to stay out of it.
The whole globe is waging war
and the end is not yet in sight.
[Verse 6]
I could write forever
about all the suffering the war has brought
but then I would only make myself more dejected.
There is nothing we can do,
but wait as calmly as we can
until the misery comes to an end.
Jews wait – Christians wait – the whole earth waits
– And there are many who wait for death.
Written by: Anne Frank, Michael Tilson Thomas
