The All-Russian nation, also known as the pan-Russian nation or the triune Russian nation is a Russophile ideology which sees the Russian nation comprise three historical, regional branches: Great Russians, Little Russians and White Russians. An imperial nation-building dogma, it was used in an unsuccessful attempt to transform the Russian Empire into a nation-state on the basis of a triune "All-Russian" nationality that consisted of, in addition to ethnic Russians, all indigenous East Slavic inhabitants of historic Ruthenia (namely, Ukrainians and Belarusians). The concept was coined predominantly by the Kievan clergy and became the official state-sponsored national identity of the Russian Empire, which by the 19th century was embraced by many imperial subjects (including Jews and Germans) and served as the foundation of the Empire. The title "Tsar of Of All Rus'" borne by every Russian ruler after Peter the Great reflects the official status of this ideology in the Russian Empire.
What do I do with all the roses outside
There not supposed to grow this time of year
It's a hard rain but you got me smiling
And you are the only one who can get me through
I can hear your voice when you're whispering
I can feel your heart when it's beating
I believe you're near when the ghost comes in
I can hear you when you're calling out my name
I can remember when a day lasted forever
Summer was everything and there was nothing to fear
You were so tough but your heart said so much
And nobody else got through quite like you
I can hear your voice when you're whispering
I can feel your heart when it's beating
I believe you're near when the ghost comes in
I can hear you when you're calling out my name
Did I get hit by the moonlight, under the stars
'Cos you feel so close that I can reach you
Wherever you are
I can hear your voice when you're whispering
I can feel your heart when it's beating
I believe you're near when the ghost comes in
I can hear you when you're calling
I can hear your voice when you're whispering
I can feel your heart when it's beating
I believe you're near when the ghost comes in
