In A Crowd Of Thousands (from Anastasia) sing and play along

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.

A parade passing by.

It was hot.

Not a cloud in the sky.

Then a boy caught my eye in a crowd of thousands.

He was thin.

Not too 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 and crowd.

And I tried not to smile,

but I smiled...

and then he bowed.

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.
