ANATOLY: Knowing I want you Knowing I love you I can't explain Why I remain careless about you FLORENCE: I've been a fool to allow Dreams to become Great expectations ANATOLY: How can I love you so much Yet make no move? BOTH: I pray the days and nights In their endless weary procession Soon overwhelm my sad obsession You and I we've seen it all Chasing our hearts' desire But we go on pretending Stories like ours Have happy endings ANATOLY: You could not give me More than you gave me Why should there be Something in me Still discontented FLORENCE: I won't look back anymore And if I do-just for a moment ANATOLY: I'd soon be happy to say I knew her well BOTH: But if you hear today I'm no longer Quite so devoted to this affair I've been misquoted You and I We've seen it all Chasing our hearts' desire But we go on pretending Stories like ours Have happy endings
