Anastasia Original Broadway Cast - In A Crowd Of Thousands

verse 1 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 verse 2 She sat straight as a queen Only eight but so proud and serene How they cheered How I stared In that crowd of thousands BRIDGE 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 REFRAIN The parade travelled 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 verse 3 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 eyes DMITRY & ANYA In a crowd of thousands verse 4 ANYA He was thin Not too clean There were guards But he dodged in between Yes he made himself seen In that crowd of thousands BRIDGE Then he called out my name And he started to run Through the sun and heat and the crowd And I tried not to smile but I smiled And then He bowed DMITRY, spoken N.C I didn’t tell you that ANYA, speaking N.C You didn’t have to I remember! REFRAIN DMITRY & ANYA The parade travelled on With the sun in my eyes you were gone But I knew even then In a crowd of thousands I’ll find you again DMITRY, spoken Your Highness
