[Florence]
This is an all too familiar scene

[Anatoly]
Life imperceptibly coming between

[Both]
Those whose love is as strong
As it could or should be

[Florence]
I'd give the world
To stay just as we are--
It's better by far

[Both]
Not to be too wise
As we realize
There was truth
And there were lies

[Anatoly]
Knowing I want you
Knowing I love you
Cannot compare to 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'll want to

[Both]
More than I should
Oh, how I love you

[Both]
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 dont know why
I'm standing by
Watching this happen

[Florence]
I won't look back any more
And if I do--
Just for a moment

[Anatoly]
I can't imagine 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--
One happy moment

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