about

The sisters (and company) sing the finale.

lyrics

The Sisters:
THERE ARE PIECES OF YOUR HEART
THAT CAN LIFT YOU UP OR TEAR YOU CLEAN APART
DEPENDING HOW YOU LET THEM FIT.
OUR PASSIONS AND OUR GOALS
DESIRES, FEARS AND PAIN CAN MAKE US WHOLE
IF WE EMBRACE THEM AND ADMIT

WE ARE IMPERFECT BUT AWAKE
WE’RE VERY SMALL, SO LET’S ALL TAKE EACH OTHER’S HAND
IT MAKES IT EASIER TO STAND UP AND BE SEEN

WE’RE ALL BORN WITH A VOICE
AND WE’RE TOLD THAT IF WE’RE GOOD, WE WON’T MAKE NOISE
BUT THAT NARROW CHOICE IS WRONG
(GO ON AND ASK THE QUESTION)

IF YOU’RE QUIET AND RESIGNED
YOU LEAVE THE WORLD FOR OTHERS TO DEFINE
IT’S OUR WORLD NOW, SO JOIN OUR SONG

Ensemble:
REMAKE THE WORLD WHERE WE BELONG

WE ARE IMPERFECT BUT AWAKE
WE’RE VERY SMALL, SO LET’S ALL TAKE EACH OTHER’S HAND
IT MAKES IT EASIER TO STAND UP AND BE SEEN
AND ONCE WE’RE SEEN THEN THEY WILL KNOW

THAT WE ARE STRONG AND HERE TO STAY
WE HAVE EACH OTHER, SO IF THEY
CHOOSE TO IGNORE US ANY LONGER
THEN WE’LL JUST KEEP GETTING STRONGER AND ONE DAY

OUR LOVE WILL OVERWHELM THEM, ‘CAUSE IT’S BOUNDLESS AND TRANSCENDING
WITH OUR FRIENDS WE’LL CELEBRATE OUR UNTOLD WORTH
IT WILL BE HEAVEN HERE ON EARTH.
WE CAN MAKE HEAVEN HERE ON EARTH.

WHEN YOUR HEART IS ENOUGH
AND YOUR LOVE HAS NO PRICE
AND YOU CAN STAND OUT IN THE SUNLIGHT PROUD
WITHOUT THE SLIGHTEST FEAR
THEN HEAVEN CAN BE HERE
SO LET’S MAKE HEAVEN HERE.
