I went from Moscow to St. Petersberg On the midnight train I knew I must go, two years without a word Could you feel the same? Eleven thirty, at the Vok Sal My guardian angel knew My frozen footfall, on the platform Leads me back to you
This coldest of wars Where I stand to lose The best thing I ever had It's something I want so bad Ten hours from Leningrad
To see your face again Is all I need You give the life to me And air to breath
And when you're there, well then I'm not so cold When we're alone again As close as Russian dolls
Did I see you? Oh I can't be sure In the gathering crowd Our connection, always so secure Signal's not so loud
So I come to you What else can I do? You're the best thing I ever had You're something I need so bad Ten seconds from Leningrad
To see your face again Is all I need You give the life to me And air to breath
And when you're there, well then I'm not so cold When we're alone again As close as Russian dolls.
