Russian chanson ballad with a slow swaying 6/8 feel; verses stay close and spoken-sung over nylon-string guitar, brushed snare, upright bass, and sighing accordion; pre-chorus lifts with a climbing accordion figure and a small tom pulse; chorus opens into longer held vowels with soft female harmony answers; final chorus pulls down to near-whisper duets, then swells on the last title line.
