Maury Yeston - Overture / Prologue: In Every Age lyrics

Artist: Maury Yeston

album: Titanic: The Musical (Original Broadway Cast Recording)


THOMAS ANDREWS
In every age mankind attemps
To fabricate great works
At once magnificent
And impossible...
On desert sounds, from mountains of stone
A pyramid!
From flying buttresses alone
A wall of light!
A chapel ceiling
Screaming one man´s ecstasy
One man´s ecstasy...
Miracles them all!
China´s endless wall...
Stonehenge, the Pathenon, the Duomo,
The aqueducts of Rome.
We did not attemp to make
With mommoth blocks of stone
A giant pyramid
No, not a pyramid...
Nor gothik walls that radiate with light...
Our task was to dream upon
And then create
A floating city!...
Floating city!...
A human metropolis...
A complete civilisation!
Sleek!
And fast!
At once a poem
And the perfection
Of physical engineering...
At once a poem
And the perfection
Of physical engineering...
