We were sweethearts in college, we married in the Spring,
Found an apartment outside of Beijing
Our good times were many, our problems were few
We were carefree and happy, a nation of two.

But it wasn’t long after our daughter arrived,
My wife came down sick and she barely survived
She saw lots of doctors as the years slipped by
But she failed to improve much and we didn’t know why

Chorus:
Oh where is she now, the love of my life
What has become of my beautiful wife
Where is the happiness that we once knew
Where is the heart that beat so true

Then one day my wife learned about Falun Gong
She studied and practiced and it didn’t take long
Till her illness had vanished without leaving a trace
She had a bounce in her step and a smile on her face.

The next several years were the best we had known
She followed the way that her Teacher had shown
But storm clouds were brewing in the ruling Party
Jiang Zemin was stewing in his own jealousy

There was light in the darkness and so Jiang’s cabal
Found a final solution to get rid of them all.
He launched the red terror on a hot summer night,
My wife was arrested and she dropped out of sight.

Repeat chorus
Oh where is she now, the love of my life
What has become of my beautiful wife
Where is the happiness that we once knew
Where is the heart that beat so true

 

 

Two years went by slowly, our child turned fourteen
She held back her tears as she asked me again
“How could the police take my mother away?”
“Will she be home by my next birthday?”

I searched high and low, but I found not a clue
Where she was taken, seemed nobody knew
Then I dropped to my knees when the truth came to light
About thirty-six death camps, hidden from sight.

There’s crimes taking place and I’m making it clear
So the whole world will know what is happening here
They’re harvesting organs from live detainees
For sale to the transplant industry

Repeat Chorus
Oh where is she now, the love of my life
What has become of my beautiful wife,
Where is the happiness that we once knew
Where is the heart that beat so true?
