The footsteps echo through
A shady avenue
The checkpoint makes no sound
In an iron curtain land
Cold wars have cooled me down
Get by into the ground
Cold, cold - call me away
Cold, colder - every day
Cold wars are here to stay
The darkness grew and grew
As I reached the rendezvous
I’d trade my suitcase here
For a taste of Western air
Cold wars have cooled me down
Get by into the ground
Cold, cold - call me away
Cold, colder - every day
Cold wars are here to stay
A footprint in the snow
Is it the way I must go?
Cold, cold - call me away
Cold, colder - every day
Cold wars are here to stay
The satellite of doom
Over beyond the moon
The comrades and the free
Now face redundancy
Cold wars have cooled me down
Get by into the ground
Cold, cold - call me away
Cold, colder - every day
Cold wars are here to stay
Cold, cold - call me away
Cold, colder - every day
Cold wars are here to stay
