stephen flaherty - still/the neva flows (reprise) lyrics

Loading...

[anya, spoken]
gleb

[gleb]
an underhanded girl
an act of desperation
and to my consternation
i let you go

(spoken)
well not this time
paris is no place for a good and loyal russian

[anya, spoken]
we are both good and loyal russians

[gleb, spoken]
i’ve come to take you home

[anya, spoken]
my home is here now

[gleb, spoken]
stop playing this game, anya!
i beg you

[anya, spoken]
we both know it’s not a game gleb

[gleb, spoken]
if you really are anastasia
do you think history wants you to have lived?

[anya, spoken]
yes!
why don’t you?

[gleb, spoken]
the romanovs were given everything
and they gave back nothing
until the russian people rose up and destroyed them

[anya, spoken]
all but one
finish it
i am my father’s daughter

[gleb, spoken]
and i am my father’s son!

(gun clicks)

finish it i must

(sung)
my father shook his head and told me not to ask
my mother said he died of shame

[anya, spoken]
in me you see them
look at their faces in mine
hear their screams
imagine their terrors
see their blood

[gleb]
but i believe he did a proud and vital task
and in my father’s name

[anya, spoken]
do it and i will be with my parents and my brother and sisters
in that cellar in yekaterinburg all over again

[gleb]
the children
their voices
a man makes painful choices
he does what’s necessary, anya

for russia, my beauty
what choice but simple duty
we have a past to bury, anya

[ensemble]
and the neva flows, a new wind blows

[gleb & ensemble]
and soon it will be spring
the leaves unfold, the tsar lies cold

[gleb]
be careful what a dream may bring!
a revolution is a simple thing!
