My friends it's not what you were famous for

But now the whole world's watching you

If we could help you then you know we would

But we don't know just what to do

Eye to eye our ways are not the same

We never tried to understand

But it could pass to each of us you name

Then who's the one to take the blame

 Kiev, candle with flame

 You'll never be the same

 Our hearts go out to you

 And what you're going through

 They've thrown away your past

 Just like an empty glass

 Into the fire

Someone wiser took the Steppe from you

I'm sure with reason it was right

But now it seems the whole world's blaming you

And who's the one to put things right

 Kiev, candle with flame

 You'll never be the same

 Our hearts go out to you

 And what you're going through

 They've thrown away your past

 Just like an empty glass

 Into the fire

 Kiev, candle with flame

 You'll never be the same

 We all will understand

 You're really not to blame

 They've thrown away your past

 Just like an empty glass

Into the [f]fire Ki[c]ev
