Nikita, counting ten tin soldiers in a row
The human heart a captive in the snow
Do you ever see the letters that I write?
Oh Nikita you will never know anything about my home
Oh I saw you by the wall
Oh Nikita is the other side of any given line in time
I'll never know how good it feels to hold you
Nikita I need you so
Oh Nikita you will never know, never know anything about my home
Oh no, Nikita you'll never know
Oh Nikita is the other side of any given line in time
Nikita, counting ten tin soldiers in a row
When you look up through the wire
Nikita do you count the stars at night?
Counting ten tin soldiers in a row
Counting ten tin soldiers in a row
Oh Nikita you will never know anything about my home
Counting ten tin soldiers in a row
Nikita, counting ten tin soldiers in a row
Just look towards the west and find a friend
Ten of your tin soldiers in a row
You could roll around the world
I'll never know how good it feels to hold you
Oh no, Nikita you'll never know
And if there comes a time
Guns and gates no longer hold you in
Do you ever dream of me?
Oh no, Nikita you'll never know
I'll never know how good it feels to hold you
Nikita I need you so
Nikita I need you so
And never find a warmer soul to know
With eyes that looked like ice on fire
And if you're free to make a choice
Oh Nikita is the other side of any given line in time
