- Statues And Stories LyricsMargaret: What happened here? Well let's see...
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: Where would that be? Where is that?
Margaret: In the tower,
A warning bell would ring.
Clara: What kind of warning?
Maragaret: For a fire,
Or river overflowing.
Clara: Oh.
Maragaret: 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...

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!
Margaret: Your father and I took our honey moon here before the war and this is my first time back! I think it is my favorite place on earth.
Clara: I can see why.
Margaret: The openness, the light, and... what else? From her sight on the great route, From Upper Italy to Rome, she commanded the passage of the arno they call city she here I bet you didn't know that.
Clara: I'd bet she'd loose her bet!
