Song language: English
Amsterdam |
| You and me got the whole day off |
| Take a trip to Vincent Van Gogh |
| But the line went halfway round the block |
| And we’re looking for a place to rest |
| Every seat in every bar was set |
| So we turned back to The Grand Hotel |
| And the rain came hard |
| A million people on a protest march |
| Every choice, every path was mistaken |
| You and me got the whole thing sussed |
| Gray man is shadowing us |
| Wild conspiracies turn to dust |
| Hear the sound of cathedral bells |
| Cash ringing at the gates of Hell |
| And fairground hooligans push and swell |
| They’re the darkest days of a free man |
| Lying in the streets of Amsterdam |
| Nearly fell underneath the tram |
| But I picked myself up |
| Every temptation and device |
| All the diamonds and the spice |
| I would give anything for the sight |
| Of an honest man (Hey) |
| Eyes swim in emptiness |
| I was looking at a hotel guest |
| He blew me a big sarcastic kiss |
| And the Lord walked in |
| With a monocle and lips so thin |
| Saw the barman wink as he poured his brandy |
| They’re the darkest days of a free man |
| Lying in the streets of Amsterdam |
| Nearly fell underneath the tram |
| But I picked myself up |
| Every temptation up in lights |
| All the diamonds and the spice |
| Could take profit from the vice |
| Of another man |
| Amsterdam |
| Cold, cold |
| Cold, cold |
| You belong |
