In this hour of the night
One candle I light
Before sleep takes me
And the prayer that I start
I know it by heart
Need one favor from heaven
If I must walk alone
Let the road lead me home
I know she's waiting

Fighting back frozen tears
Through the miles all the years
Don't know how I do it
It's the ghost that I feel
It's too warm, too real
But I can live through it

There's no cure I can tell
I'm still under her spell
If I walk alone
Let the road lead me home
I know she's waiting

I don't know when
I don't know how
But I'm coming home
I'll find a way
To brave the cold
And warm this lonely russian soul

Ain't no cure I can tell
I'm still under her spell
I know she's waiting for me
And I walk alone
Let the road lead me home
She's waiting
She's waiting
