[Verse 1]
Hey Nikita, is it cold
In your 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 fire and ice
The human heart, a captive in the snow

[Chorus]
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 will never know

[Verse 2]
Do you ever dream of me?
And do you ever see thе letters that I write?
Whеn 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 you're free to make a choice
Just look towards the west and find a friend
[Chorus]
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 Nikita, you will never know

[Chorus]
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 will never know
