Playing my guitar
Left hopelessly wondering where you are
Oh Russian lady
Where did you go?
Enjoyed a tryst one time
The thought alone, it makes me feel sublime
Went for a dance
Showed the world what a pair we could be
How you may just have been the woman for me
The woman I wanted to romance
And you gave me that chance
Oh Russian lady, where did you go
Oh Russian lady, where did you go
Is it that I sent you in the wrong direction
Oh Russian lady, when I take a drink it is you who I think about
Think about the times we spent together
How everything else was just background noise
Oh Russian lady, where did you go
Oh Russian lady, where did you go
Is it that I sent you in the wrong direction
Your fantastic body, curves in all of the right places
One of those long in the memory faces
You made my friends sit up
Take notice
Jealous of the lady on my arm
Even if only for a while
The way you spoke
‘Angelina lips’ I liked to call YOU
Made everyone and their mother smile
Later that night
It may have been winter in Moscow
But there was nothing but sunshine in my heart
You told me you liked me, could even get to love me
Things started to make sense now
Oh Russian lady, where did you go
Oh Russian lady, where did you go
Is it that I sent you in the wrong direction
OH RUSSIAN LADY
With my woman now
Love her so much
All the good things that go with her, a second to none sensual touch
Of course you still come to mind from time to time
But now you’re no more than background noise
It’s still winter in Moscow
But there’s nothing but sunshine in my heart
