Listen to the song and put its verses into the correct order

"Moscow Suburb Nights" is one of the most popular Russian songs outside Russia. It was written in 1955 by Vasily Solovyov-Sedoy (music) and Mikhail Matusovsky (words). Originally they wrote the song for a sports documentary, which had a scene with a group of Russian athletes relaxing on the river bank. When the song was broadcast on the radio, it became a hit overnight.

Not a rustling leaf, not a bird in flight In the sleepy grove until dawn. How I love these nights, Moscow suburb nights, The caress of the waking sun. The calm rilling stream seems to ebb and flow Like a silver web of moonlight, In my heart I hear singing come and go On this wonderful summer night. Why this downcast look? Does the rising day Bring us near the hour when we part? It's as hard to keep as to give away All that presses upon my heart. Dawn is nigh, and pale grow the amber lights. Let me hope, my dear, that you too Will remember these Moscow suburb nights And our love that has been so true.
