Spotlights burn, the bass is tight
Sweat and rhythm in the velvet night
Didn’t come here lookin’ for romance
But you froze me with a single glance

One spark, the crowd went still
Like time slipped off the windowsill

You were there
In the heat, in the haze
Golden stare
Cutting through the purple blaze
Russian flame
In a crowd of masquerades
Girl, I knew
I knew right then
You weren’t just another face

I missed my cue, forgot the rhyme
You drank your drink like stolen time
Red lips glowed in neon rain
Moscow dreams runnin’ through my veins

And everything went off-track
But I wouldn’t take it back

You were there
In the heat, in the haze
Golden stare
Cutting through the purple blaze
Russian flame
In a crowd of masquerades
Girl, I knew
I knew right then
You weren’t just another face

Balalaika heartstrings hum
I feel the tremble in my drum
Dance, don’t stop, just one more chance To hold your fire in a glance
