In 1936, author Thomas Wolfe returned from a trip to Europe and wrote about what he witnessed there, including the discrimination and brutal treatment of Jews. This is song, released on January 28, 2021, during the full moon known as the Wolf Moon, is inspired by Wolfe and his writings.
lyrics
I… I Have a Thing to Tell You
And it won’t sound nice
So close your eyes
Back before we crossed
On the snow and ice
I heard the cries
I always run alone
But I’m always looking home for you
If the world has passed you by
Run away and hide; 108 in time
I always run alone
But I’m always looking home for you
If the world has passed you by
Run away and hide; 108 in time
Oh I have a thing to tell you
And it’s sound advice
Open your eyes
The world has lost direction
And it can’t be right
I run in the night
Nun Will Ich Ihnen ‘Was Sagen
You must hear my call
There’s no time at all
So cry, cry at the top of your lungs
‘Cause you run alone
And you can’t go home
