Andrée © John Johns 2009
This song is a tribute to Andrée Borrel and the three women SOE agents excecuted with her in 1944 - one of which was Diana Rowden who had family connections to my home village of Tilford and is commemorated in the village church.
Seems so long ago * Everything was different then * Never be the same again * They'll never know * Everything she had to give * All the life she had to live * Taken away * Andrée
CHORUS: Everything she'd ever done * All that she had lost and won * All she had - They took away * Andrée
She was a hero * Knowing what she did was right * Knowing that on any night * Someone might know * No one knows the price she Paid * Her life - for the lives she saved * All betrayed * Andrée *
CHORUS
Bridge: Betrayed - on that summer day * Betrayed - taken far away * No one knows - the price she had to pay * Andrée
CHORUS Andrée
