| Down by the muddy harbor
|
| For many a restless night
|
| Have I been walking
|
| Down by the muddy harbor
|
| For many a restless night
|
| Have I found myself talking
|
| And much to my surprise
|
| I found that 've been wrong for so long now
|
| I found that I’ve been wrong
|
| I found that I’ve been wrong for so long now
|
| I’ve been to New York City
|
| I’ve seen the world at large and it’s hurting
|
| It took a lot of pain to get me where I am
|
| That’s for certain
|
| I’ve felt the arms of God
|
| And I’ve felt the Devil’s kisses
|
| In the Nighttime
|
| I thought I’d seen it all
|
| Just to watch it fall like curtains
|
| Just to watch it come down to this
|
| I’m Amsterdam stranded
|
| And it’s taken for granted that I’m singing
|
| But one of these days
|
| I will be leaving
|
| I’ve got leaving on my mind
|
| Gonna leave it all behind
|
| That’s for certain
|
| I’m tired of waisting time
|
| Chasing this high
|
| Oh, sweet burden…
|
| How did we end up like this? |
