Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Neither you Simon
Nor the fifty thousand
Nor the Romans
Nor the Jews
Nor Judas
Nor the twelve
Nor the Priests
Nor the scribes
Nor doomed Jerusalem itself
Understand what power is
Understand what glory is
Understand at all
Understand at all
[Verse 2]
If you knew
All that I knew
My poor Jerusalem
You'd see the truth
But you close your eyes
But you close your eyes
While you live
Your troubles are many
Poor Jerusalem
To conquer death
You only have to die
You only have to die
Written by: Andrew Lloyd Webber, Tim Rice
