"Troika" lyrics - BLACKMORE'S NIGHT

BLACKMORE'S NIGHT
"Troika"
(Ritchie Blackmore / Candice Night)

There's a place in my heart
The shadows call their home
Cold as the winds through Siberia
Where the snow lies so deep
You can't even see the sun
Run, my Troika, run
Run, my Troika, run

Let the horses run free
So dark against the white
Over the fields, till they're out of sight
And I am swept away
The journey has begun
Run, my Troika, run

Oh, my mother Russia
Land of fairytales
Captured like the wind
In her silken sails

And the time rushes by
A thief in the night
Stealing my memory
Fading out the light
But I cannot forget where it is that I come from
Run, my Troika, run

Oh, my mother Russia
Land of fairytales
Captured like the wind
In her silken sails

I can still see your face
The years have been kind
Dust on the pictures
Clouding up my mind
But remember me now, not for what I may become
Run, my Troika, run

There's a place in my heart
The shadows call their home
Cold as the winds through Siberia
Where the snow lies so deep
You can't even see the sun
Run, my Troika, run

La la la, [etc.]

Run, my Troika, run
Run, my Troika, run
Hey
