We don't talk about Bruno, but
It was my wedding day
[Félix:]
It was our wedding day
[Pepa:]
We were getting ready
And there wasn't a cloud in the sky
[Félix:]
No clouds allowed in the sky
[Pepa:]
Bruno walks in with a mischievous grin
[Félix:]
Thunder
[Pepa:]
You're telling the story or am I?
[Félix:]
I'm sorry, mi vida, go on

Bruno says, "It looks like rain"

Why did he tell us?

[Pepa:]
In doing so, he floods my brain

[Pepa:]
Married in a hurricane
[Félix:]
What a joyous day but anyway
[Pepa & Félix:]
We don't talk about Bruno, no, no, no
We don't talk about Bruno
[Dolores:]
Hey, grew to live in fear of Bruno stuttering or stumbling
I can always hear him sort of muttering and mumbling
I associate him with the sound of falling sand, ch-ch-ch
It's a heavy lift with a gift so humbling
Always left Abuela and the family fumbling
Grappling with prophecies they couldn't understand
Do you understand?
[Camilo:]
Seven-foot frame, rats along his back
When he calls your name it all fades to black
Yeah, he sees your dreams and feasts on your screams (Hey)

No, no
[Townsperson 3:]
He said that all my hair would disappear, now, look at my head
[Ensemble:]
Hey!
No, no
Your fate is sealed when your prophecy is read
[Isabela:]
He told me that the life of my dreams
Would be promised, and someday be mine
He told me that my power would grow
Like the grapes that thrive on the vine
[Abuela Alma:]
Óye, Mariano's on his way
[Dolores:]
He told me that the man of my dreams
Would be just out of reach
Betrothed to another
It's like I hear him, now
[Isabela:]
Hey sis, I want not a sound out of you
[Dolores:]
It's like I can hear him now, I can hear him now

[Mirabel:]
Um, Bruno
Yeah, about that Bruno
I really need to know about Bruno
Give me the truth and the whole truth, Bruno

MIRABEL: That’s why I’m in the vision, I’m
saving the miracle!
ABUELA ALMA: You have to stop, Mirabel!

[Mirabel:]
Look at this home
We need a new foundation
It may seem hopeless but we'll get by just fine
Look at this family, a glowing constellation
So full of stars and everybody wants to shine
But the stars don't shine, they burn
And the constellations shift
I think it's time you learn
You're more than just your gift
[Abuela Alma:]
And I'm sorry I held on too tight
Just so afraid I'd lose you too
The miracle is not some magic that you've got
The miracle is you, not some gift, just you
The miracle is you
All of you, all of you
[Camilo (Antonio):] (being Confused)
Okay, so we gonna talk about Bruno? (That's Bruno)
[Bruno:] (being jolly)
Yeah, there's a lot to say about Bruno
I'll start, okay
Pepa, I'm sorry 'bout your wedding, didn't mean to be upsetting
That wasn't a prophecy, I could just see you were sweating
And I wanted you to know that your bro loves you so
Let it in, let it out, let it rain, let it snow, let it go
That's what I'm always saying, bro
Got a lotta 'pologies I got to say
[Pepa and Julieta:]
Hey, we're just happy that you're here, okay?
Uh...
But...
Come into the light, the triplets all reunite
And no matter what happens we're gonna find our way
[Dolores:]
Yo, I knew he never left, I heard him every day
[Abuela (Townspeople):]
(Oh, oh, oh, oh) What's that sound?
[Antonio (Townspeople):]
(Oh, oh) I think it's everyone in town
[Townspeople:]
Hey!
Lay down your load (Lay down your load)
We are only down the road (We are only down the road)
We have no gifts, but we are many
And we'll do anything for you
[Isabela (Ensemble):]
It's a dream when we work as a team (All of you, all of you)
You're so strong
[Luisa (Townspeople) {Mirabel}:]
Yeah, but sometimes I cry (All of you, all of you)
{So do I}
I may not be as strong but I'm getting wiser
[Isabela:]
Yeah, I need sunlight and fertilizer
C'mon, let's plant something new and watch it fly

[Isabela, Luisa, and Mirabel:]

Straight up to the sky, let's go
[Ensemble:]
The stars don't shine, they burn
The constellations glow
The seasons change in turn
[Julieta (Agustín):]
Would you watch our little girl go? (She takes after you)
[Mirabel (Mariano):]
Hey Mariano, why so blue?
(I just have so much love inside)
Y'know, I've got this cousin too
Have you met Dolores?
[Dolores:]
Okay, I'll take it from here, goodbye
You talk so loud
You take care of your mother and you make her proud
You write your own poetry every night when you go to sleep
And I'm seizing the moment, so would you wake up and notice me?
[Mariano (Dolores) {Ensemble}]
Dolores, I see you (And I hear you)
Yes
{All of you, all of you}
Let's get married (Slow down)
{All of you, all of you}
[Mirabel (Abuela Alma):]
Home sweet home
I like the new foundation
(It isn't perfect)
Neither are we (That's true)
(Just one more thing, before the celebration) What?
We need a doorknob

[Antonio:]
We made this one for you
[Ensemble (Bruno):]
We see how bright you burn
We see how brave you've been
Now, see yourself in turn
(You're the real gift, kid, let us in)
Open your eyes
Abre los ojos
What do you see?
[Mirabel:]
I see me
All of me
