Hey Nik-it-a is it cold
In your lit-tle cor-ner of the world
You could roll a-round the globe
And nev-er find a warm-er soul to know
Oh I saw you by the wall
Ten of your tin sol-diers in a row
With eyes that looked like ice on fire
The hu-man heart a cap-tive in the snow
CHORUS
Oh nik-it-a you will nev-er know
An-y-thing a-bout my home
I'll nev-er know how good it feels to hold you
Nik-it-a I need you so
Oh nik-it-a is the oth-er side of
an-y giv-en line in time
Count-ing ten tin sol-diers in a row
Oh no, nik-it-a you'll nev-er know
VERSE
Do you ev-er dream of me
Do you ev-er see the let-ters that I write
When you look up through the wire
Nik-it-a do you count the stars at night
And if there comes a time
Guns and gates no lon-ger hold you in
And if you're free to make a choice
Just look to-wards the west and find a friend
