[FLORENCE]
This is an all too familiar scene
Life imperceptibly coming between
Those whose love is as strong as it could or should be
[ANATOLY]
Nothing has altered
[FLORENCE]
Yet everything's changed
[ANATOLY]
No one stands still
[ANATOLY & FLORENCE]
Still I love you completely and hope I always will
[ANATOLY]
Why do we need to put love into words
Causing confusion?
We protest, explain
We assure in vain
Come to no conclusion
[FLORENCE]
I'd give the world to stay just as we are
It's better by far
Not to be too wise
Not to realize
[ANATOLY & FLORENCE]
Where there's truth, there will be lies
[FLORENCE]
You and I
[ANATOLY & FLORENCE]
We've seen it all
Chasing our hearts desire
But we go on believing
Nothing can harm us
This is forever
[SVETLANA]
You knew better than me
Where your ambitions would take us
I knew sooner than you
That those ambitions would break us
You would not believe me
Why should you believe me?
I held you back
You and your dreams
Who needs a dream?
Who needs ambition?
Who's be the fool
In my position?
Year after year
I'm still denying
Anything's changed
Anything's dying
But then
[ANATOLY & SVETLANA]
You and I
We've seen it all
Been down this road before
[SVETLANA]
But I go on pretending
Stories like ours
Have happy endings
