Dmitry It was June I was ten I still think of that day Now and then A parade And a girl And a crowd of thousands She sat straight As a queen Only eight But so proud and serene How they cheered How I stared In that crowd of thousands Then I started to run And to call out her name As the crowd on the road went wild I reached out with my hand And looked up And then she smiled The parade Traveled on With the sun in my eyes She was gone But if I were still ten In that crowd of thousands I’d find her again
Anya (spoken) You’re making me feel I was there too.
Dmitry (spoken) Maybe you were. Make it part of your story.
Anya A parade
Dmitry A parade
Anya Passing by
Dmitry Passing by
Anya It was hot Not a cloud in the sky Then a boy Caught my eye
Both In a crowd of thousands
Anya He was thin Not to clean There were guards But he dodged in between Yes he made himself seen In that crowd of thousands Then he called out my name And he started to run Through the sun and the heat In the crowd I tried not to smile But I smiled And then he bowed
Dmitry (spoken) I didn’t tell you that.
Anya (spoken) You didn’t have to. I remember!
Both The parade Traveled on With the sun in my eyes You were gone But I knew Even then In a crowd of thousands I’d find you again
