Текст песни My Russian Friend And I - "Calendar Girls" Original London Cast

The lover a girl needs to get in her life
Is one who'll let her forget she's a wife
He'll fill her with dreams and the courage of queens
Show her what it means to fly

He won't need to hear ya to know that you've cried
Shows you compassion but knows that you've lied
Stays with you all through the loneliest hours
And is gone when morning comes
But at least he'll make it til morning

Oh, my Russian friend and I
We'll take life in our stride
No fight I can't fight
If I feel him by my side
Such fire in his kiss
Such science in his stare
Makes you feel the drop beneath the tightrope isn't there

With him, I'm invincible
With him, I'm strong
With him, I feel guilt
But not a guilt that's wrong
My Russian friend and I
My one shot in the dark
My lone alibi

All the suspicions, and all of the fears
Make every night last a couple of years
The one empty chair, and the untrodden stare
Tell ya love's elsewhere tonight
So you take the comfort of strangers

Oh, my Russian friend and I
We'll take life in our stride
Sundance if he's butch
I'll be Bonnie, if he's Clyde
So, when the fighting starts
The toughest blows begin
Those that strike the heart
But don't show up on the skin
I am too invincible to give a damn
I am too invincible to give a damn

Here I am again
My friend
With you
Convincing me that I am too invincible to give a damn

Or maybe less aware how vincible I am
My Russian friend and I
Defender, crush, and spy

Is mud in your eye?
