Statues and Stories Lyrics

[MARGARET, spoken]
What happened here? Well, let's see...

(sung)
On a central square
In the city of the sun Rosa Palace
It was high and handsome
Gleaming like the crown of a king

[CLARA, spoken]
Where would that be? Where is that?

[MARGARET]
In the tower
A warning bell would ring

[CLARA]
What kind of warning?

[MARGARET]
For a fire
Or river overflowing

[CLARA]
Oh

[MARGARET]
Firenze
On a central square
The beginning of a kingdom republic

[CLARA]
Was there a king? Was there a queen?

[MARGARET]
There were princes painters
Nobleman of logic and art

[CLARA]
Firenze!

[MARGARET]
Leonardo...

[CLARA]
Leonardo...

[MARGARET]
Michaelangelo, the start

[CLARA, spoken]
That's a completely naked statue!

[MARGARET]
T'was a dawning day
Unfurling...

[CLARA]
From the heart...
The painting of the world we know

[BOTH]
The world we know
On a central square

[MARGARET]
In the city made of statues and stories

[CLARA]
Go on and tell me what they mean

[MARGARET]
It ignited there like a beacon coming out of the dark
You can feel it...

[CLARA]
You can feel it...

[MARGARET]
You can follow...

[CLARA]
You can follow...

[MARGARET]
The Spark

[CLARA]
We're on vacation

[MARGARET]
From an age to an age

[CLARA]
From an Age to an age

[MARGARET]
In Firenze...

[CLARA]
In Firenze...

[MARGARET]
In Firenze...

[CLARA]
In Firenze...

[MARGARET]
The spark, the world
[CLARA]
The painting of the world
[BOTH]
It started there and then and here we are
It a new old world to me
It's a new old world and we are here!

[CLARA]
On a central square

[MARGARET]
In the city made of statues and stories

[BOTH]
It ignited there like a beacon coming out of the dark

[CLARA]
You can feel it...

[MARGARET]
You can feel it...

[CLARA]
You can follow...

[MARGARET]
You can follow...

[CLARA]
You can feel it...

[MARGARET]
You can feel it...

[CLARA]
You can follow...

[MARGARET]
You can follow the spark...

[CLARA]
We're on vacation!

[MARGARET]
We're on vacation!

[COMPANY]
Ah...

[CLARA]
In Firenze...

[MARGARET]
In Firenze

[CLARA]
In Firenze

[MARGARET]
In Firenze
The spark, the world

[CLARA]
The painting of the world
[BOTH]
It started then and there and here we are!
It's a new old world to me
It's a new old world and we are finally here!
