Anastasia - The Neva Flows Lyrics |
2017 Broadway Production ANASTASIA the Musical - The Neva Flows Lyrics
Gleb: Be very careful of these rumors that prevail Be very careful what you say I was a boy who lived the truth behind the tale and no one got away I saw the children as the soldiers closed the gate The youngest daughter and her pride My father leaving on the night they met their fate His pistol by his side
The Neva flows, a new wind blows And soon it will be spring The leaves unfold The tzar lies cold A revolution is a simple thing
Gleb (spoken): I heard the shots I heard the screams But it's the silence after I remember most
Gleb (sung): The world stopped breathing And I was no longer a boy My father shook his head and told me not to ask My mother said he died of shame But I believe he did a proud and vital task And in my fathers name:
The Neva flows A new wind blows And soon it will be spring The leaves unfold The tzar lies cold
Gleb (aside): Could I have pulled the trigger If I'd been told.
Be careful what a dream may bring A revolution (spoken) is (sung) a simple thing.
