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