Russian Doll

Like a Russian doll, it's so hard to tell: what goes on inside, behind your painted shells.

Underneath a sky of Prussian blue, just call me will rush to you. When the midnight bells begin to toll, I just want to be with my Russian doll.

Oh my Russian doll, skin like moonlit snow, hold me in the dark - never let me go.

[CHORUS] Underneath a sky of Prussian blue, just call me will rush to you. When the midnight bells begin to toll, that's when I long to see my Russian doll.

Bloody Sunday red, the colour of your lips. Just when I get close, from my arms you slip.

Underneath a sky of Prussian blue, with stars that shine for me and you. When the midnight bells begin to toll, I long to be with you my Russian doll.

[repeat chorus]
