Yekaterinburg

[Verse 1]
Ekaterinburg, you wake me up
On the edge of Europe, hard and proud
Founded in seventeen twenty-three
Stone by stone, you still speak loud

Monuments on every road
Old facades and copper gold
People coming, people staying
In your wind, I hear them singing

[Pre-Chorus]
One point five million hearts
Beat like boots on frozen streets
Every corner pulls me close
Every shadow knows my name

[Chorus]
Yekaterinburg, my inspiration
Yekaterinburg, my inspiration
Beautiful city, take me higher
Beautiful city, set me on fire

Yekaterinburg, my inspiration
Yekaterinburg, my inspiration
I hear your echo, I come alive
I hear your echo, I come alive

[Verse 2]
Museums, domes, and wide-open squares
History dancing in the air
Visitors trace your winter lines
Then they stay for the way you shine

I run my hands across your walls
Hear the clapping in your halls
Rough voice, sweet heat, I sing you back
Every heartbeat on the track

[Pre-Chorus]
One point five million hearts
Beat like boots on frozen streets
Every corner pulls me close
Every shadow knows my name

[Chorus]
Yekaterinburg, my inspiration
Yekaterinburg, my inspiration
Beautiful city, take me higher
Beautiful city, set me on fire

Yekaterinburg, my inspiration
Yekaterinburg, my inspiration
I hear your echo, I come alive
I hear your echo, I come alive

[Bridge]
Oh, Catherine’s name still rings
Through your bridges and your springs
I spin through the northern chill
And your skyline holds me still

[Final Chorus]
Yekaterinburg, my inspiration
Yekaterinburg, my inspiration
Beautiful city, take me higher
Beautiful city, set me on fire

Yekaterinburg, my inspiration
Yekaterinburg, my inspiration
I hear your echo, I come alive
I hear your echo, I come alive
