About

Sung during a performance of Swan Lake, the quartet sings about their recurring thoughts. Anya wonders if this evening will finally bring her the family she has been yearning for. Dmitry realizes he must do everything in his power for Anya to be accepted as the long-lost Romanov princess. The Dowage...

Quartet at the Ballet Annotated

[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...

(spoken)
Don't be ridiculous!

(singing)
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, DIMITRY, GLEB, DIMITRY & GLEB]
Painted wings (Home, love) (Simple things)
Silver snow (Fam'ly) (Simple things!)
Whirling like a ballet (She will have) (And whatever I)
(All of it!) (Have to do I will)
Things my heart (I will) (Simple how)
Yearns to know (help her) (Simple men)
Find a way... (Find a way...)

[ALL]
Anastasia!
