about

Written in St.Petersburg, Russia the summer of 2012, while visiting my dad for the first time in 2.5yrs..during the white nights (sky stays white at night time).

lyrics

"We went out at night time
Air filled with excitement
And the sky was a blank white sheet
Spread out

We were walkin walkin walkin in the park
Haven't seen you for so long
We sang old familiar songs
All sad feelings were dissolved for now
For now....

Can you imagine being in my place
Is what my father's brother said
That's exactly what happened
Now that my uncle's dead

We were walkin walkin walkin in the park
Haven't seen you for so long
We sang old familiar songs
All sad feelings were dissolved for now
For now...

And i wear everything on my sleeve
Most of my thoughts n all my beliefs
N i know all family history's suffer through some grief
the thought that mine could still be happy
Comes as a relief
OooOooo

And when i'm over here i miss being over there
But when i go back there i know that i'll miss bein here
With youuuuu

In these whiiite nights
We'll walk until we're hard to reach
Until we're outta sight
In these whiiite nights
Y'showed me how the bridges part
N found your way into my heart
In these white niights
These whiite niiights
These white nights..
These white nights..."
