Hey, Nikita is it cold
In your little corner of the world?
You could roll around the globe
And never find a warmer soul to know
Oh, I saw you by the wall
Ten of your tin soldiers in a row
With eyes that looked like ice on fire
The human heart a captive in the snow
Oh, Nikita you will never know, anything about my home
I'll never know how good it feels to hold you
Nikita I need you so
Oh, Nikita is the other side of any given line in time
Counting ten tin soldiers in a row
Oh no, Nikita you'll never know
Do you ever dream of me?
Do you ever see the letters that I write?
When you look up through the wire
Nikita do you count the stars at night?
And if there comes a time
Guns and gates no longer hold you in
And if you're free to make a choice
Just look towards the west and find a friend
Oh, Nikita you will never know, anything about my home
I'll never know how good it feels to hold you
Nikita I need you so
Oh, Nikita is the other side of any given line in time
Counting ten tin soldiers in a row
Oh no, Nikita you'll never know
Oh, Nikita you will never know, never know anything about my home
I'll never know how good it feels to hold you
Nikita I need you so
Oh, Nikita is the other side of any given line in time
Counting ten tin soldiers in a row
Oh no, Nikita you'll never know
Nikita, counting ten tin soldiers in a row
Nikita, counting ten tin soldiers in a row
Nikita, counting ten tin soldiers in a row
Nikita, counting ten tin soldiers in a row... (fade)
In your little corner of the world?
You could roll around the globe
And never find a warmer soul to know
Oh, I saw you by the wall
Ten of your tin soldiers in a row
With eyes that looked like ice on fire
The human heart a captive in the snow
Oh, Nikita you will never know, anything about my home
I'll never know how good it feels to hold you
Nikita I need you so
Oh, Nikita is the other side of any given line in time
Counting ten tin soldiers in a row
Oh no, Nikita you'll never know
Do you ever dream of me?
Do you ever see the letters that I write?
When you look up through the wire
Nikita do you count the stars at night?
And if there comes a time
Guns and gates no longer hold you in
And if you're free to make a choice
Just look towards the west and find a friend
Oh, Nikita you will never know, anything about my home
I'll never know how good it feels to hold you
Nikita I need you so
Oh, Nikita is the other side of any given line in time
Counting ten tin soldiers in a row
Oh no, Nikita you'll never know
Oh, Nikita you will never know, never know anything about my home
I'll never know how good it feels to hold you
Nikita I need you so
Oh, Nikita is the other side of any given line in time
Counting ten tin soldiers in a row
Oh no, Nikita you'll never know
Nikita, counting ten tin soldiers in a row
Nikita, counting ten tin soldiers in a row
Nikita, counting ten tin soldiers in a row
Nikita, counting ten tin soldiers in a row... (fade)
