Russian Holiday
[Verse 1]
After every late night, there is an early start
Some of the roads aren't roads
And all the seats are hard
Sixteen men are boys, we laugh about these things
I don't want to understand my Russian holiday
[Verse 2]
Saint Petersburg is overnight and we sleep on the train
And I am Harry Palmer from a film with Michael Caine
Tinker tailor soldier spy and someone disappeared
And now he's back again on my Russian holiday
[Verse 3]
Another crazy show, and there's no JD on the stage
Today they watched and waited
Outside in the freezing rain
Have you got a line I heard an old man say
No we don't have that here, on my Russian holiday
[Chorus]
Who can tell me now, will I ever see home again
I would give my life if I could see your face now
Who can tell me now, will I ever see home again
I would give my life if I could see your face now
[Post-Chorus]
If I could see your face
[Bridge]
I'm feeling so down, but I don't get worse
So that is a good thing in the Russian world
They go by their hearts, and not on their feet
They are as tough as anyone can be
On my Russian holiday
[Chorus]
Who can tell me now, will I ever see home again
I would give my life if I could see your face now
[Outro]
Who can tell me now, will I ever see home again
I would give my life if I could see your face
On my Russian holiday
