Prisoner of War Lyrics by Kimberly Ann Cook


Kimberly Ann Cook Lyrics

(Vietnam War Memorial . Washington DC)

[1] Thunder sends a chill down his spine…
And he’s held captive by the silence late at night…
There’s nothing he can do…
When the past comes back around…
Bringing back the memories that always take him down….

[2] He feels so lucky…that he made it through…
Without him here today…what would his family do…
Sometimes he can’t bear…the pain he feels inside…
The sights and sounds…of all those who died…

[CHO] HE’S A PRISONER OF WAR….
TRAPPED BEHIND AN OPEN DOOR…
AND THOUGH HE DIDN’T DIE…HE BARELY FEELS ALIVE…
NO WHERE TO RUN….
NO WHERE TO HIDE…
WHEN YOU’RE A PRISONER…
WHEN YOU’RE A PRISONER OF WAR….

Orchestral Music Channel

[3] A victim of emotion…always lost in time…
Lord only knows…what’s going through his mind…
He wears the purple heart…for all the world to see…
But he’d gladly give it back…
If he could be set free…..

[CHO] HE’S A PRISONER OF WAR….
TRAPPED BEHIND AN OPEN DOOR…
AND THOUGH HE DIDN’T DIE…HE BARELY FEELS ALIVE…
NO WHERE TO RUN….
NO WHERE TO HIDE…
WHEN YOU’RE A PRISONER…
WHEN YOU’RE A PRISONER OF WAR….

Musical Turn-A-Round/Talking Part

[Spoken] There are a lot a good people…
Whose names aren’t carved in stone…
Who fought for our freedom…and lost their own…

[CHO] THEY’RE PRISONERS OF WAR….
TRAPPED BEHIND AN OPEN DOOR…
AND THOUGH THEY DIDN’T DIE…THEY BARELY FEEL ALIVE…
NO WHERE TO RUN….
NO WHERE TO HIDE…
WHEN YOU’RE A PRISONER…
WHEN YOU’RE A PRISONER OF WAR….

[TAG] Trapped behind an open door….

Orchestra to the stop
