The Key Is by Original Cast of Alice By Heart Lyrics
[ALICE]
Leave the talkers talking
The hum is what we want
Song beyond thought
[ALICE & CHESHIRE PUSS]
Let the worry fade
No more "hurry, hurry"
The summer is purring
[ALL]
We're going higher, 'cause
[ALICE]
We can rise beyond what's gone
Through a world they got so wrong
'Til we know the sky beyond
The key is
The key within you
Sun rises meek
The sea and the shore
The sigh of the wind and the dim blue stars
[ALICE & CHESHIRE PUSS]
One turn of the key
The garden door
Flowers and leaves chanting who we are
[ALL]
And we're climbing, 'cause
[ALICE]
I won't let them move you on
Play you like some ghostly pawn
Oh, we'll hold the still blue dawn
The key is
To be within you
Slow, slow time
Tumble into my heart
The sky so wide
Always light, always dark
[WHITE RABBIT]
But, but, but
[ALICE]
Just please, we'll turn the lock
With this key sublime
We'll unwind the clock
[WHITE RABBIT]
And we're rising up
[ALL]
Let them play their ghostly fraud
Witness in the name of god
Still, we'll build a sky so broad
To see is
To dream within you
We will rise beyond what's gone
Stop the night and hold the dawn
In a world where we belong
The key is
To be within you
Ahhhh...
[ALICE & WHITE RABBIT]
Leave our shadows on the lawn
Leave a world they got so wrong
There's a sky where we belong
The key is
The key is in you
Leave the talkers talking
The hum is what we want
Song beyond thought
[ALICE & CHESHIRE PUSS]
Let the worry fade
No more "hurry, hurry"
The summer is purring
[ALL]
We're going higher, 'cause
[ALICE]
We can rise beyond what's gone
Through a world they got so wrong
'Til we know the sky beyond
The key is
The key within you
Sun rises meek
The sea and the shore
The sigh of the wind and the dim blue stars
[ALICE & CHESHIRE PUSS]
One turn of the key
The garden door
Flowers and leaves chanting who we are
[ALL]
And we're climbing, 'cause
[ALICE]
I won't let them move you on
Play you like some ghostly pawn
Oh, we'll hold the still blue dawn
The key is
To be within you
Slow, slow time
Tumble into my heart
The sky so wide
Always light, always dark
[WHITE RABBIT]
But, but, but
[ALICE]
Just please, we'll turn the lock
With this key sublime
We'll unwind the clock
[WHITE RABBIT]
And we're rising up

Leave our shadows on the lawn
Leave a world they got so wrong
There's a sky where we belong
The key is
The key is in you
