2017
[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! (The ball begins; they dance.) [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 (Natasha breaks away.) [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 (They kiss.) [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
