Lyrics for Song: Nikita
Lyrics for Album: Sweet Songs [1986]
(Elton John/Bernie Taupin)
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.
