Stranger in this city where
You've never been before
You came because you wanted soemthing new
Travelin' east plays havoc with
Your body and your mind
Was comin' here the smartest thing to do?
As you wander thru the Palace Square
Jet lag fogs your head
So many new and different sights to see
The day is drawing to its end
But you're not goin' to bed
'Cause the Neva nights are
What you came to see
CHORUS 1:
Oh the Neva Nights are lovely
Oh the Neva Nights are White
Your watch tells you it's mighty late
But the sun is shining bright
The embankment's one big party
There you meet a Russian girl
Steel blue eyes, and golden skies
Your head begins to whirl
Walk and talk along the river
Drink that vodka down
Begin to feel the magic
Of this old river town
And of the midnight sun
Shining up there in the skies
And the Neva Nights so lovely
Reflecting in her eyes.
She's curious and wants to know
About the place you're from
And how it is for people living there
Someday she wants to travel
If she ever can
Right now she feels she'll
Never go nowhere
You don't know how to tell her
That you hope her dreams come true
Somehow she gets the message just the same
A little smile she gives you
As she pours another drink
With a kiss she lets you know
She's glad you came (to see the)
REPEAT CHORUS
