Cold Wars

The footsteps echo through

A shady avenue

The checkpoint makes no stand

In an iron curtain land

Cold wars have cooled me down

Kept my ear to the ground

Cold, cold, coming your way

Cold, colder every day

Cold wars are here to stay

The darkness grew and grew

As I reached the rendezvous

I'll trade my suitcase in

For a taste of Western air

Cold wars have cooled me down

Kept my ear to the ground

Cold, cold, coming your way

Cold, colder every day

Cold wars are here to stay

A footprint in the snow

Leads to where I must go

Cold, cold, coming your way

Cold, colder every day

Cold wars are here to stay

The satellites of doom

Over beyond the moon

The comrades and the free

Now face redundancy

Cold wars have cooled me down

Kept my ear to the ground

Cold, cold, coming your way

Cold, colder every day

Cold wars are here to stay
