Still/The Neva Flows (Reprises) lyrics
Still/The Neva Flows (Reprises)
Gleb:
My father shook his head told me not to ask
My mother said he died of shame
Anastasia:
In me you see them, look at their faces in mine,
Hear their screams, imagine their terror, see their blood!
Gleb:
But I believe he did a proud and vital task
And in my father's name...
Anastasia:
Do it and I will be with my parents and my brother
And sisters in that cellar in Ekaterinburg 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 the past to bury, Anya!
Ensemble:
The Neva flows, a new wind blows
Gleb and 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!
