"I remember it well-" Ralph starts, waking over to N/N.

You were born in a palace by the sea

A palace by the sea

"Could it be?"

"Yes that's right."

Jack slowly walked up to them.

You ride horseback when you were only three

"Horseback riding? Me?" She looked to the sky to see a cloud shaped into a horse.

And the horse
He was white
You made faces and terrorized the cook
Threw him in the brook
Was I wild?

"Wrote the book." Jack answers, from the ground.

But you behave when your father gave that look
Imagine how it was
Your long-forgotten past

We've lots and lots to teach you and the time is going fast

"All right, I'm ready." N/N responds, following Ralph onto a fallen tree trunk.

Now, shoulders back and stand up tall
And do not walk but try to float
I feel a little foolish, am I floating?
Like a little boat

Birds placed a small tree branch on her head, as N/N held her arms out trying to keep her balance with Ralph in front and Jack behind her.

You give a bow
What happens now?
Your hands receive a kiss

Jack raised her hand and placed a soft and gently kiss on the back of her hand as N/N looked at him in shock, but with a small blush.

Ralph took of the branch and placed it on his own head.

Most of all, remember this
If I could learn to do it, you can learn to do it
Something in you knows it

Jack snatched the branch on, and placed it back on N/N's head.

There's nothing to it
Follow in my footsteps, shoe by shoe
You can learn to do it too

N/N followed him, as she tools small yet graceful steps as she walked off the tree trunk.

They were suddenly in the back of a truck, eating.

Now, elbows in and sit up straight
And never slurp the Stroganoff

"I never cared for Stroganoff." N/N retorts, as she flipped her hair back a little.

She said that like a Haddock
The Samovar
The Caviar
Dessert and then goodnight?
Not until you get this right

They were now horseback riding, with Ralph and Jack on a brown horse and N/N on a white one.

If I could learn to do it
If he could learn to do it
You can learn yo do it
You can learn to do it
Pull yourself together
And you'll pull through it
Tell yourself its easy, and its true
You can learn to do it too

N/N passes them and looks back and blows them a kiss as she jumped a small brick wall. Ralph followed quickly, and Jack was behind, yet, his horse had stopped causing him to yell and land in a puddle of mud.

Now they were on a wagon.

"Next we memorize the names of the Royalty." Ralph states, as he unrolled the paper and it was long. N/N's eyes wide in shock as Jack jumped down to sit by her.

Now, here we have Kropotkin
Shot Potemkin
In the Bodkin

"Oh!"

And dear old uncle Vanya loved his Vodka
Got it N/N?

Jack had grabbed the book and threw it behind them.
"No." N/N answers

The Baron Pushkin

"He was--"
"Short"

Count Anatoly

"Had a--"
"Wart"

Count Sergei

"Wore a feather hat"

I believe he's gotten fat
And I recall his yellow cat!
I don't believe we told her that

They were now riding bicycles, N/N had one with a wooden basket, which held baby Todd, and was swaying side to side unsteady as Ralph and Jack show up by her side.

If you could learn to do it, I can learn to do it
Don't know how you knew it
I simply knew it, suddenly I feel like someone new
N/N you're a dream come true

They were now on a double decker bus, on the top, pulling up on a dock. They board down, Jack going first, carrying a suitcase, then Ralph

If I can learn to do it
If I can learn to do it
You can learn to do it
You can learn to do it
Pull yourself together
And you'll pull through it
Tell yourself it's easy
And it's true
You can learn to do it
Nothing to it
You can learn to do it too

They were on the wooden plank, leading to the boat, with Copper barking as he jumps into N/N's arms. The foghorn blows and they board the boat. N/N smiles to herself, can't waiting to head to Paris.
