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

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
