Dance me darling around Palace Square
Along the river banks glistening white
Pass the bottle cause the cellar’s almost bare
We’ll get to business when we finish all the wine

Dance me darling along the canal
Kiss me by the walls of the fortress gates
Strip the gold off, pull the plaques from the walls
Rename the streets, build the monuments again

And so it goes, a city overthrown
We’ve never known anything quite like this
What’s theirs is ours is theirs
What’s mine is yours is mine

So rise! Raise the glasses high
And gather by the balcony
We’ll paint the whole town
red and proudly drink to the fallen elite
of 1917

Dance me darling until the night
Over the bridges where the edges glow bright
We’ll sketch the moment, or frame it in our hands
Saying “This is my city, this city is mine”

And so it goes, a city overthrown
We’ve never known anything quite like this
What’s theirs is ours is theirs
What’s mine is yours is mine

So rise! Raise the glasses high
And gather by the balcony
We’ll paint the whole town
red and proudly drink to the fallen elite
of 1917

And so it goes, a city overthrown
We’ve never known anything quite like this
What’s theirs is ours is theirs
What’s mine is yours is mine

So rise! Raise the glasses high
And gather by the balcony
We’ll paint the whole town
red and proudly drink to the fallen elite
of 1917

And I will sing for her, my love songs true
All my words for her, a place I swore I knew
Of fields, of streams, villages gleaming,
A sun spread flat that combs
The land of rye and flax, and I
Will sing for her and you

And so it goes, a city overthrown
We’ve never known anything quite like this
What’s theirs is ours is theirs
What’s mine is yours is mine

So rise! Raise the glasses high
And gather by the balcony
We’ll paint the whole town
red and proudly drink to the fallen elite
of 1917
