Going Back to Kyiv

I was caught off guard
Though long since on duty
And of that silence my heart
Knew the treacherous beauty

And they poured in most clumsily
A murdering band of thieves
They all shall fall in time for this
We're going back to Kyiv

We're going back to Kyiv
I'll see you back in Kyiv

This war has been a chain of
Flashes of bland and green
But once they're driven back
There'll be new dreams

And you'll be my queen
And I will be your man
And we'll take it one step at a time
And do the best we can

When we'rе going back to Kyiv
We're going back to Kyiv

And though some of our bravеst are with us no more
We'll rebuild again
And sing that some of our brightest are with us no more
We'll remember them
And though some of our dearest are with us no more
We will rise again
To sing that some of our wildest are with us no more
We'll remember them

When we're going back to Kyiv
We're going back to Kyiv
I'll see you back in Kyiv
We're going back
To Kyiv

You will be my queen
And I will be your man
You'll be my queen
