once on this island ensemble - why we tell the story lyrics

a tree that sprang up!
and cracked the walls of the hotel beauxhomme
so that it’s gates could never close again!
a tree that lived forever!
sheltering peasant and grand homme alike!
a tree that watched over daniel for his lifetime!
a tree in which his children played!
and one day, as daniel’s young son played in the tree
he noticed a beautiful young peasant girl, high in the branches
looking out at the world
and the spirit of ti moone touched their hearts and set them free to love!
and she stands against the lightning and the thunder
and she shelters and protects us from above
and she fills us with the power and the wonder
of her love…
and this is why we tell the story!
wh-y we tell the story
why we tell the story
wh-y we tell the story
if you listen very close you’ll hear her call us
to come share with her our laughter and our tears!
and the mysteries and miracles that befall us
through the years…
we tell the story!
life is why
we tell the story!
pain is why
we tell the story!
love is why
we tell the story!
grief is why
we tell the story!
hope is why
we tell the story!
faith is why
we tell the story!
you are why
why we tell the story
wh-y we tell the story
why we tell the story
wh-y we tell the story
so i hope that you will tell this tale tomorrow
it will help your heart remember and relive
it will help you feel the anger and the sorrow
ti-moone: and, forgive!
for what do we live and we believe?
our lives become
the stories that
we weave
peasant girl: there is an island
where rivers run deep
where the sea, sparkling in the sun, earns it the name
jewel of the antilles!
where the poorest of peasants labor
and the wealthiest of grand hommes play
and on this island,
we tell the story.
(we tell the store-y)
