{ANATOLY} |
| [00:57.500] |
They all think they see a man |
| [01:00.780] |
Who doesn't know |
| [01:03.580] |
Which move to make |
| [01:06.560] |
Which way to go |
| [01:09.530] |
Whose private life |
| [01:12.580] |
Caused his decline |
| [01:16.840] |
Wrecked his grand design |
| [01:24.570] |
Some are vicious |
| [01:26.190] |
Some are fools |
| [01:28.080] |
And others blind |
| [01:31.350] |
To see in me |
| [01:34.010] |
One of their kind |
| [01:42.200] |
Anyone can be |
| [01:43.970] |
A husband, lover |
| [01:45.320] |
Sooner them than me |
| [01:47.220] |
When they discover |
| [01:48.590] |
Their domestic bliss is |
| [01:50.210] |
Shelter for their failing |
| [01:55.160] |
Nothing could be worse |
| [01:57.190] |
Than self-denial |
| [01:58.420] |
Having to reverse |
| [02:00.390] |
This endless trial |
| [02:01.740] |
Of a partner's rather |
| [02:03.360] |
Sad demands prevailing |
| [02:06.580] |
{SVETLANA} |
| [02:06.800] |
As you watch yourself caring |
| [02:09.690] |
About a minor sporting triumph |
| [02:12.060] |
Sharing your win with esoterics |
| [02:14.830] |
Paranoids, hysterics |
| [02:17.020] |
You don't pay attention |
| [02:18.660] |
To what goes on around them |
| [02:21.720] |
They leave the ones they love |
| [02:23.310] |
The way they found them |
| [02:25.660] |
A normal person must |
| [02:27.110] |
Dismiss you with disgust |
| [02:28.910] |
And weep for those who trusted you |
| [02:31.820] |
{ANATOLY} |
| [02:32.480] |
Nothing you have said |
| [02:34.350] |
Is revelation |
| [02:35.640] |
Take my blues as red |
| [02:37.630] |
My consolation |
| [02:38.920] |
Finding out at last |
| [02:40.170] |
My one true obligation |
| [02:43.790] |
{FLORENCE} |
| [02:44.010] |
Since you seem to have shut out |
| [02:47.050] |
The world at large |
| [02:48.060] |
Then maybe I should cut out |
| [02:50.820] |
Your tiny inessential |
| [02:52.610] |
World-- inconsequential |
| [02:54.270] |
In the kind of game you're playing |
| [02:56.680] |
How do you do it? |
| [02:59.120] |
I tried to be that cynical but blew it |
| [03:02.690] |
I only changed your life |
| [03:04.270] |
You left your home, your wife |
| [03:05.830] |
I'm not surprised I slipped your mind |
| [03:09.380] |
{ANATOLY} |
| [03:09.890] |
Nothing you have said |
| [03:11.940] |
Is revelation |
| [03:13.280] |
Take my blues as red |
| [03:15.330] |
My consolation |
| [03:16.560] |
Finding out at last |
| [03:18.050] |
My one true obligation |
| [03:25.590] |
{FLORENCE, SVETLANA & SOLOISTS} |
| [03:27.210] |
Listen to them shout |
| [03:29.610] |
They saw you do it |
| [03:30.980] |
In their minds, no doubt |
| [03:32.970] |
That you've been through it |
| [03:34.250] |
Suffered for your art |
| [03:35.590] |
But in the end a winner |
| [03:40.950] |
We have never heard |
| [03:42.790] |
Such an ovation |
| [03:44.020] |
Who could not be stirred? |
| [03:46.050] |
Such dedication |
| [03:47.290] |
Skill and guts |
| [03:48.370] |
A model for the young beginner |
| [03:52.350] |
They're completely enchanted |
| [03:55.430] |
But they don't take your qualities for granted |
| [03:59.100] |
It isn't very often |
| [04:00.950] |
That the critics soften |
| [04:02.510] |
Nonetheless you've won their hearts |
| [04:04.600] |
How can we begin to |
| [04:07.450] |
Appreciate the work that you've put into |
| [04:11.310] |
Your calling through the years |
| [04:12.730] |
The blood, and sweat and tears |
| [04:14.410] |
The late, late nights, the early starts? |
| [04:18.510] |
There they go again! |
| [04:20.540] |
Your deeds inflame them |
| [04:21.740] |
Drive them wild, but then |
| [04:23.820] |
Who wants to tame them? |
| [04:25.270] |
If they want a part of you |
| [04:26.900] |
Who'd really blame them? |
| [04:31.430] |
{ANATOLY} |
| [04:36.860] |
And so |
| [04:38.200] |
You're letting me know-- |
| [04:39.590] |
{FLORENCE} |
| [04:39.880] |
You're the only one |
| [04:40.840] |
Who's never suffered |
| [04:41.780] |
Anything at all! |
| [04:42.670] |
{ANATOLY} |
| [04:43.300] |
How you've hated my success! |
| [04:45.320] |
{SVETLANA} |
| [04:45.860] |
Well, I won't crawl |
| [04:48.020] |
And you can slink back |
| [04:50.750] |
To your pawns |
| [04:52.130] |
And to your tarts |
| [04:53.970] |
{ANATOLY} |
| [04:54.180] |
And every poison word |
| [04:56.340] |
Shows that you never understood! |
| [04:59.390] |
{ANATOLY}......{SVETLANA}......{SOLOISTS} |
| [04:59.600] |
Never!............../Liar!................../Check! |
| [05:00.690] |
Never!............../Liar!................../Check! |
| [05:01.390] |
{ANATOLY}......{FLORENCE}......{SOLOISTS} |
| [05:01.600] |
Never!............../Liar!................../Check! |
| [05:02.620] |
Never!............../Liar!................../Check! |
| [05:03.440] |
Never! |
| [05:04.400] |
Never! |
| [05:11.160] |
{FLORENCE, SVETLANA & SOLOISTS} |
| [05:11.360] |
Nothing you have said |
| [05:13.190] |
Is revelation |
| [05:14.930] |
Take my blues as red |
| [05:17.260] |
My consolation |
| [05:18.810] |
Finding out that |
| [05:20.070] |
I'm my only obligation |
| [05:23.680] |
{ANATOLY} |
| [05:24.300] |
Is there no one in my life |
| [05:26.560] |
Who will not claim |
| [05:29.340] |
My right to steal |
| [05:32.210] |
My work, my name |
| [05:35.090] |
My success, my fame |
| [05:41.290] |
And my freedom? |
| [05:48.900] |
{THE ARBITER, spoken} |
| [05:49.400] |
Anatoly Sergievesky is the winner, and remains world champion |
| [05:55.930] |
{Crowd applauds} |
| [06:19.980] |
{FLORENCE, spoken} |
| [06:22.670] |
So, you've done it. You're still the champion |
| [06:26.400] |
{ANATOLY, spoken} |
| [06:26.760] |
I had to win to be free |
| [06:29.520] |
{FLORENCE, spoken} |
| [06:29.950] |
Free for what? |
| [06:31.770] |
{ANATOLY, spoken} |
| [06:31.960] |
Free to help your father-- if I go back. |
| [06:35.520] |
Free to play chess-- it's the only thing I can stay true to |
