Song Lyrics
The time of Cathedrals
English text
This is a story which happened
In Paris at the Lord´s time, In 1482,
This is a story of love and passion,
And we, artists without a name
of sculpture and rhyme,
We will make it revive in the future.
This is the time of cathedrals,
Stone constructions,
Statues, music and poetry.
Everything flies up to stars.
On walls and stained-glass windows
There are masterpieces of architecture.
With so many stones and days,
With a century passion,
The human built the towers
With his working hands,
Music and words.
He sang of love
And an ideal that flies in heavens
Of tomorrow.
This is the time of cathedrals,
Stone constructions,
Statues, music and poetry.
Everything flies up to stars.
On walls and stained-glass windows
There are masterpieces of architecture.
This is the time of cathedrals,
Stone constructions,
Statues, music and poetry.
Everything flies up to stars.
On walls and stained-glass windows
There are masterpieces of architecture.
The time of cathedrals will be gone
The stone will be hard As this reality
In hands of these vandals and pagans,
Which are already here.
This is a day which will come,
It will come today.

Song Lyrics
The Age of Cathedrals
English text
This is a story that takes place
In fair Paris in the year of our Lord
Fourteen hundred eighty two
A story of love and of desire
We, the anonymous artists
Of sculpture and verse,
Will attempt to transcribe it for you
And for the centuries to come
The age of cathedrals has come
The world has entered
A new millennium
Man wanted to reach the stars
To write his story
In glass and in stone
Stone after stone, day after day
From century to century with love
He saw the towers rise
That he had built with his hands
The poets and the troubadours
Sang songs of love
That promised the human race
Better days to come
The age of cathedrals has gone
The hoard of barbarians
Storms the city gates
Let them in, these pagans, these vandals
The end of this world
Is predicted for the year 2000
Is predicted for the year 2000
