For reopening of Statue of Liberty Park in New York after 9/11.
Let the torch down Come down from your pedestal Take a giant step Reach the moon again Leave the ashes of your twins there Take another step across the ocean Let me tell you my story in a flamenco dance How I lick my wounds To heal from the blast Then come and sit by the Eiffel Tower Let's share some cheese and wine I'll tell you about love and care That our fathers felt When they molded you together Come to Persepolis Listen to the story how I saved it When tanks came to level it, like Bamian When you pass Falluja Look at the sergeant With foggy eye glasses Holding the little girl Who lost all her family to a blast Bring your torch to Jerusalem So we can see The pool of tears that our children cry Please take these memories home To share, to teach, to enlighten Pick up your torch Hold it high So I can see it Even across the ocean
