Lyrics Natasha, Pierre and the Great Comet of 1812 - The Ball

[ANATOLE]
Waiting at the door,
Waiting at the door,
Waiting

Waiting at the door,
Waiting at the door,
Waiting

Waiting at the door,
Waiting at the door,
Waiting

And there she is

[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 in my eyes

[NATASHA]
And said nothing,
Just

[NATASHA & ANATOLE]
Gazed 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 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

Natalie!

[NATASHA]
I can feel your eyes upon me

[ANATOLE]
Blocking her path,
I bring her 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
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 press 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
