Saved Lyrics
I was blinded by the devil, born already ruined Stone-cold as I stepped out of the womb By His grace I have been touched By His word I have been healed By His hand I've been delivered By His spirit I've been sealed Now I've been saved by the blood of the Lamb I'm saved by the blood of the Lamb And I'm so glad
I was blinded by the devil, born already ruined Stone-cold as I stepped out of the womb By His grace I have been touched By His word I have been healed By His hand I've been delivered By His spirit I've been sealed Now I've been saved by the blood of the Lamb I'm saved by the blood of the Lamb And I'm so glad
ESMERALDA
I am Esmeralda Agrn, Seora.
I know I've no right to speak.
My son is not the savage boy you see,
The cape, the sneer, the slicked-back hair
It hides the child I nursed and bathed,
Seora.
Please don't turn your eyes from me
Your son, gone to God, and mine to blame
My fated son,
He too is gone
The state will see to that, I am sure,
Seora
The state will see to that, I am sure.

You Spanish people, you come to this country
Nothing here changes your lives

Ungrateful immigrants asking for pity
When all of your answers are knives
This city makes a cartoon of a crime
Capes and umbrellas the glorification of
slime
I have to face this horror, Seora.
2ND MOTHER
My religion
Asks me to pray for the murderer's soul
But I think you'd have to be
Jesus on the cross
To open your heart after such a loss
Can I forgive him?
Can I forgive him?
No, I cannot
Can I forgive him
No, I cannot
Friends become strangers<
Summer Hearts Lyrics
Summer hearts on our sleeves. Won?t you fall, fall with me into a dream? Into me passionately, we'll paint our own world. Your colors will run and bleed, and they'll melt with me. Is this foolish love or is it true and deep? Summer hearts worn on our sleeves. (2x) And you know we're gonna fall. You'l

Summer hearts on our sleeves. Won?t you fall, fall with me into a dream? Into me passionately, we'll paint our own world. Your colors will run and bleed, and they'll melt with me.

Compassion is hard to express in words
The trembling flowers they bring
Fear in the roots and the stem
What happened to me they know could happen
to them.
Can I forgive him
No, I cannot
Can I forgive him
No
ESMERALDA
Only God can say 'Forgive'
His son too received a knife
But we go on, we have to live
With this cross we call our life
1ST MOTHER
Feels like a bomb fell
And wave after wave come the aftershocks

A Little Story Lyrics
- "once there was this little boy who asked his father, Would you tell me that old, old story? Once there was this little boy who asked his father, Would you tell me that old, old story? Once there was this little boy and he went to..." - "mummy...you should remem
You can't believe that it's true
There must be some mistake
You drift through this nightmare from which
you can't wake
BOTH MOTHERS
Can I forgive him?
Can I forgive him,
No, I cannot
Can I forgive him?
Can I forgive him, no, I cannot
Can I forgive him?
Can I forgive him, no, I cannot
Can I forgive him
No, I cannot.
