You and I

[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
Reassure 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'd 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
