Crises - Ghosts Of The Past Left Behind (Nurse, Shanty, Mary Dee) (Paul McCartney's Liverpool Oratorio, 1991)
MARY DEE
Do we live in a world
With an uncertain future
Where a man is unsure of his fate?
Will we come to our senses
Be fair to each other?
Can we turn it around
Before it's too late?
Do I know that we have the answer?
Yes, I know now We are together.
So we must bear in mind
That the pages are turning
And the sand will run out of the glass.
In the heat of the battle
We will drive out the demons
And we'll carry the day,
For we must save the child.
MARY DEE and NURSE
(Ah)
MARY DEE and SHANTY
We have come to our senses,
We are part of each other
And we'll carry the day,
For we must save the child.
CHORUS
Do you know that you have the answer?
MARY DEE and SHANTY
Yes, we know now.
CHORUS
We know now.
MARY DEE and SHANTY
We know now.
We are together.
