Letra da Música Heart Of France de Leonardo - The Absolute Man

Francois I: The master speaks above the crowd
He made his mark upon the proud

Salai: Will France prevail upon the crown
to let him stay among us now?

Melzi: Imagine all we'll learn from this
'disciple of experience'

Chorus: Grant us my lord, approval at last
Let us embrace him, our Leonardo...

Francois I & Melzi: I have ambitious
plans for him
He will help me design the royal residence
while we're conversing on everything
that he learned
How he tried all of his years
Then, 'let his well-filled day bring sleep'

Melzi & Salai: I can't watch this happen here
in the heart of France
Please end his suffering
and grant him peace at the end
for the heart of France
Then, 'let his well-filled day bring sleep'

Francois I: In the heart of France!

Leonardo: Francois, come close
My time is drawing near
My eternity hangs in the balance
I've got to confess here
I will soon know
the blue of our heavens,
the origins of the earth

Leonardo & Melzi: Would there
still be time with religion on this
death bed for my last will, last rites?

Chorus: Here in the heart of France...





Francois I & Melzi: Fear not!
I will stay here to the end
in the heart of France
All I can do now
is pray for a place of peace
for your immortal soul
Submit now, just release
You'll open this earthly veil...
and you will be on the other side
But in spirit you will always remain
deep in the heart of France.

Francois I, Melzi & Salai: Leonardo,
deep in the heart of France.
Leonardo!
Deep in the heart
Deep in the heart of France.
Deep in the heart of France.
Deep in the heart of France.

Chorus: Deep in the heart of France.

Leonardo: Dear God,
I repent
I confess
I'm a child unto thee
Through thy grace
bring this son home...

(Leonardo takes his last breath)

Melzi: 'Leonardo'!
(a shouting whisper in desperation,
recognizing Leonardo is dead)
