[Anatole]

Waiting at the door

Waiting at the door, waiting

Waiting at the door

Waiting at the door, waiting

Oh, how I adore little girls

They lose their heads at once!

[Natasha]

I am seized by feelings of vanity and fear

There is no barrier between us

Whispers and moans, and ringing in my ear

There is no barrier between us

Divine, delicious, but I do not see or hear anything

I'm borne away to a senseless world

So strange, so remote

I don't know good from bad

Anatole

Anatole

I'm so frightened

[Anatole]

You are enchanting

{Natasha]

And as we danced

He pressed my waist and hand

And told me I was

[Natasha & anatole]

Bewitching

[Anatole]

And I love you

[Natasha & anatole]

Bewitching

[Anatole]

And I love you

Natasha

And during the ecossaise, he

Natasha (& anatole)

Gazed (gaze) in my eyes

Natasha

And said nothing, just

Natasha (& anatole)

Gazed (gaze) in my eyes

Natasha

My frightened eyes

Such confident tenderness

I could not say what I had to say

[Anatole]

Don't lower your eyes

I love you

I am in love, dear

I am in love

Gaze in my eyes

I love you

You are bewitching

What can I do

Darling, what can I do?

[Natasha]

Don't say such things

I am betrothed

I love another

[Anatole]

Don't speak to me of that!

When I tell you that I am madly, madly in love with you!

Is it my fault that you're enchanting?

[Natasha]

I'm so frightened

I don't understand anything tonight

[Anatole]

I'm here now

[Anatole]

Natalie!

[Natasha]

I can feel your eyes upon me

[Anatole]

Blocking her path, I bring here face close to mine

[Natasha]

His large, glittering, masculine eyes are so close to mine

That I see nothing else

[Anatole]

Is it possible that I should never see you again?

I love you madly!

Can I never?

Natalie?

[Natasha]

You press my arm

[Anatole]

Natalie?

[Natasha]

You're hurting my hands!

[Anatole]

Natalie?

[Natasha]

I don't understand

I have nothing to say

[Natasha]

Burning lips pressed to mine

Tell me what just happened

I'm trembling

So frightening

Andrey

But I love you

Of that there is no doubt

How else could all of this have happened?

How else could we have kissed?

It means that I have loved you from the first

It means that you are kind

Noble and splendid

And I could not help loving you

I will love you, anatole

I'll do anything for you

[Natasha & anatole]

I'll do anything for you
