Chess - You and I (Reprise) Lyrics

1988 Broadway
Chess the Musical - You and I (Reprise) Lyrics

ANATOLY:
Knowing I want you
Knowing I love you
Cannot compare
With my despair
Knowing I've lost 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:
There will be days and nights
When I'll want you more than I want to
More than I should
Oh, how I want you.

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
I don't know why
I'm standing by
Watching this happen.

FLORENCE:
I won't look back anymore
And if I do -- just for a moment.

ANATOLY:
I can't imagine a time when I won't care.

BOTH:
But here we are today, and it's over
Hold me and tell me
We'll meet again
Why is it over?

You and I
We've seen it all
Chasing our hearts' desire
But we go on pretending
Stories like ours
Have happy endings.
