ANASTASIA the Musical - Still/ The Neva Flows (Reprises) Lyrics
Anastasia: (Spoken)
Gleb...
Gleb:
An underhanded girl
An act of desperation
And to my consternation,
I let you go
(Spoken)
Well not this time.
Paris is no place for a good,
And loyal Russian.
Anastasia: (Spoken)
We are both good and loyal Russians.
Gleb: (Spoken)
I've come to take you home.
Anastasia: (Spoken)
My home is here now.
Gleb: (Spoken)
Stop playing this game,
Anya! I beg you.
Anastasia: (Spoken)
We both know it's not a game, Gleb.
Gleb: (Spoken)
If you really are Anastasia,
Do you think history wants you to have lived?
Anastasia: (Spoken)
Yes. Why don't you?!
Gleb: (Spoken)
The Romanovs were given everything,
And gave back nothing.
Until the Russian people rose up
and destroyed them!
Anastasia: (Spoken)
All but one. Finish it.
I am my father's daughter.
Gleb: (Spoken)
And I am my father's son!
Finish it I must.
(Sung)
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!
