FOR YOU RAOUL…
A song-tribute to Raoul Wallenberg on his 75th birthday

There is a man
They won’t let go
He is alive
Yes we know
His name is Raoul
And he’s a hero,
He is alive
So let him go!
President Putin
We want to know
If Wallenberg lives
Then let him go!
Tell us the truth
We must know
If Wallenberg lives
Then let him go!
Now is the time
To turn the key
To open the door
And set him free
Send him home
To his family
Answer the prayers
Of humanity…
40 years in prison
Is far too long
For you Raoul
We sing this song
You saved so many lives
You did no wrong
For you Raoul
We sing this song
