Lyrics

[00:01.70] This is a tale that takes its place.
[00:04.30] In Paris fair, this year of grace.
[00:07.440] Fourteen hundred eighty two.
[00:10.440] A tale of lust and love so true.
[00:13.800] We are the artists of the time,
[00:16.950] we dream in sculpture dream in rhyme.
[00:20.30] For you we bring our world alive,
[00:23.50] so something will survive.
[00:26.670] From nowhere came the age of the cathedrals.
[00:33.400] The old world began.
[00:37.330] A new unknown thousand years.
[00:40.500] For man just has to climb up where the stars are
[00:46.830] And live beyond life.
[00:51.40] Live in glass and live in stone.
[00:56.970] Stone after stone, day after day.
[01:00.50] From year to year man had his way.
[01:03.280] Men had built with faith and love.
[01:06.670] These cathedrals rose above.
[01:09.700] We troubadours and poets sing.
[01:12.870] That love is all and everything.
[01:16.150] We promise you, all human kind.
[01:19.100] Tomorrow will be fine.
[01:23.100] From nowhere came the age of the cathedrals.
[01:29.450] The old world began.
[01:33.340] A new unknown thousand years.
[01:36.660] For man just has to climb up where the stars are.
[01:42.740] And live beyond life.
[01:46.970] Live in glass and live in stone.
[01:52.950] From nowhere came the age of the cathedrals.
[01:59.750] The old world began.
[02:03.800] A new unknown thousand years.
[02:07.20] For man just has to climb up where the stars are.
[02:13.470] And live beyond life.
[02:17.400] Live in glass and live in stone.
[02:23.820] But it is doomed the age of the cathedrals.
[02:30.180] Barbarians wait.
[02:34.150] At the gates of Paris fair.
[02:37.390] Oh let them in, these pagans and these vandals.
[02:43.780] A wise man once said.
[02:47.970] In two thousand, this world ends.
[02:54.400] In two thousand, this world ends.
