"Quartet At The Ballet" lyrics

Christy Altomare, Derek Klena, Mary Beth Peil & Ramin Karimloo Lyrics

"Quartet At The Ballet"
(from "Anastasia (Original Broadway Cast Recording)" soundtrack)

[Anya:]
Can this be the evening?
Can this be the place?
Am I only dreaming
Looking at her face?
Everything I've wanted
Suddenly so clear!
My past and my future so near...

[Dmitry:]
Next to me this frightened girl
Holding tight as the dancers whirl
Keep your nerve and
See this through
It's what you've come to do...

[The Dowager Empress:]
See that girl
Could it be...

Don't be ridiculous!

I refuse to dream
I refuse to hope
I must stop believing
I will ever find her...

[Gleb:]
She's near at hand
Yet here I stand
My heart and mind at war...
The times must change
The world must change
And love is not
What revolution's for...

[Dmitry & Gleb:]
Someone holds her
Safe and warm
Someone rescues her
From the storm
Simple things
But one thing's clear:
It's fate that brought us here...

[Anya & Dowager Empress:]
Painted wings
Silver snow
Whirling like a ballet

[Dmitry:]
Home, love, fam'ly
She will have

[Gleb:]
Simple things
Simple things!
And whatever I have to do

[Anya & Dowager Empress:]
Things my heart
Yearns to know

[Dmitry:]
All of it!
I will help her

[Gleb:]
Simple how, simple men

[Anya & Dowager Empress:]
Find a way...
Anastasia!

[Dmitry:]
Find a way...
Anastasia!

[Gleb:]
Find a way
Anastasia!
