Fix me a drink, make it a strong one, Hey comrade, a drink, make it a long one, My hands are shaking and my feet are numb, My head is aching and the bar′s going round, And I′m so down, in this foreign town;
Tonight there′s a band, it ain′t such a bad one, Play me a song, don′t make it a sad one, I can′t even talk to these Russian girls, The beer is lousy and the food is worse, And it′s so damn cold, yes it′s so damn cold, I know it′s hard to believe, But I haven′t been warm for a week;
Moonlight and vodka, takes me away, Midnight in Moscow is lunchtime in L.A., Ooh play boys, play...
Espionage is a serious business, Well I′ve had enough of this serious business, That dancing girl is making eyes at me, I′m sure she′s working for the K.G.B. In this paradise, ah cold as ice;
Moonlight and vodka, takes me away, Midnight in Moscow is sunshine in L.A., Yes, in the gold U.S.A.
I’ve never seen you looking so lovely as you did tonight. I’ve never seen you shine so bright. I’ve never seen so many men ask you if you wanted to dance, They’re looking for a little romance, given half a chance. And I have never seen that dress you’re wearing, Or the highlights in your hair that catch your eyes - I have been blind.
Refrain: The lady in Red is dancing with me, cheek to cheek, There’s nobody here, it’s just you and me, it’s where I wanna be But I hardly know this beauty by my side - I’ll never forget the way you look tonight.
I’ve never seen you so gorgeous as you did tonight, I’ve never seen you shine so bright, you were amazing, I’ve never seen so many people want to be there by your side, And when you turned to me and smiled, it took my breath away. I have never had such a feeling, Such a feeling of complete and utter love, as I do tonight.
Refrain: The lady in Red is dancing with me, cheek to cheek, There’s nobody here, it’s just you and me, it’s where I wanna be But I hardly know this beauty by my side - I’ll never forget the way you look tonight.
I’ll never forget the way you look tonight.
The lady in Red... I never will forget the way you look tonight. The lady in red, the lady in red, the lady in red, my lady in red! I love you! The last waltz with you...
