Leaving Moscow on a midnight train

Hard class and warm champagne

Share a cubby hole with Jack and Diane

Get some sleep any way we can

Russians come and Russians go

Six hundred thousand lying in a row

Solemn eyes and open hands

So much about it I don't understand

Chorus

It's in the air how much they care

And it makes me feel so bad

How much they'd give the chance to live

The life they never had....Leningrad

Champagne in bottles instead of beer

Pushkin expressway with Vladimir

Clear and cloudy, blue and gray

Summer and winter in just one day

Pins and watches....hit and run

Strolling on Nevsky just to have some fun

Baltic breezes and a midnight sun

Hotel Karelia when the day is done

Chorus

It's in the air how much they care

And it makes me feel so bad

How much they'd give the chance to live

The life they never had....Leningrad
