Lyrics Sonya & Natasha - Brittain Ashford , Phillipa Soo

How was it I noticed nothing?
How could it go so far?
It can't be that she loves him, it can't be -
Natasha!

Sonya, you're back!

And with the tender resolve that often comes at the moment of awakening,
I embraced my friend
But noticing Sonya's look of embarrassment
My face expressed confusion, and suspicion

Sonya, you've read the letter?

Yes

Oh, Sonya, I'm glad, I can't hide it any longer
Now you know we love one another
Oh, Sonya, he writes, he writes, he writes, he writes, he writes...

And Andrey?

Oh, Sonya, if you only knew how happy I am!
You don't know what love is

But Natasha, can that all be over?

I do not grasp the question!

Are you refusing Prince Andrey?

Oh, you don't understand anything
Don't talk nonsense, just listen

But I can't believe what I don't understand
How you loved one man a whole year
And suddenly - you've only known him three days!
Natasha, you're joking

Three days?
It seems to me I've known him a hundred years
It seems to me that I've never loved anyone before
Sonya, wait a bit, sit here
I had heard that it happens like this
And you must have heard it too
But it's only now I feel such love
It's not the same as before
He's my master, and I am his slave!
What can I do, Sonya?
What can I do?
I'm so happy
And so frightened
Why can't you understand?
I love him

Then I won't let it come to that
I shall tell
Bursting into tears

What do you mean, for God's sake?
If you tell, you are my enemy
You want me to be miserable
You want to tear us apart
For God's sake, Sonya
Don't tell anyone, don't torture me
I have confided in you!

What has happened between you?
What has he said to you?
Why doesn't he come to the house
And openly ask for your hand?
Why this secrecy?
Have you thought what his secret reasons may be?

I don't know what the reasons are
But there must be reasons
Sonya, one can't doubt him, one can't, one can't
Don't you understand?

Does he love you?

Does he love me?
Why, you've read the letter, you've seen him
I can't live without him

Natasha, think of our family
And think of Prince Andrey

Andrey said I was free to refuse him

But you haven't refused him - or have you?

Perhaps I have
Perhaps all is over between me and Bolkonsky
Would you think so badly of me?

I won't succumb to your tender tone
Natasha, I don't trust him
Natasha, I'm afraid for you
Natasha - afraid you are going to your ruin!

Then I'll go to my ruin, yes I will, as soon as possible!
But it's not your business, it won't be you,
It will be me who'll suffer!
Leave me alone, yes, leave me alone
I hate you, Sonya!
I hate you, Sonya!
I hate you!
I hate you!
You're my enemy forever!

I burst into sobs

And without a moment's reflection
I wrote the answer to Princess Mary
I'd been unable to write all morning

All my misunderstandings are at an end
Forget everything, and forgive me
But I can't be Andrey's wife
