Prologue: Once Upon A December Lyrics - Anastasia (original Broadway Cast Recording)

LITTLE ANASTASIA: 

Why must you go, Nana? 

THE DOWAGEREMPRESS: 

I've stayed too long here. 

LITTLE ANASTASIA: 

Take me to Paris with you. 

THE DOWAGEREMPRESS: 

Wherever I go, you'll always be with me. 

Our lullaby. When you play it, think of an old woman who loves you very, very much. 

Far away, 

Long ago, 

Glowing dim as an ember, 

Things my heart used to know, 

Things it yearns to remember... 

THE DOWAGEREMPRESS AND LITTLE ANASTASIA: 

And a song someone sings Once upon a December.
