She circles round me like a glowing wheel tonight
Precious soul, heart of gold
Although she has no money she is rich in kind
Treasure trove, heart of gold
So I get drunk on her elixir of life
That overflows from her heart of gold
Then I get burnt as the immortal flame ignites
And starts to glow in her heart of gold
Here in this Russian winter
Outside it's twelve below
And in this prison chamber
She melts the ice between my toes
With a heart of gold
Yes it's the thought that counts
The thought that cares
The thought that can't
Be overthrown in a heart of gold
No, she will not be silent
She will not be told
Despite the cold, her heart is gold
Here in this Russian winter
Outside it's twelve below
And in this prison chamber
She melts the ice between my toes
With a heart of gold
