Amsterdam is so much prettier than anyone can tell you It's the way the water passes you Every single road I first met you there, your face was young And though we've gotten older I still think of you the way I did So many years ago You know life can change before you realize You were ever happy And you wake up just to find you're living Someone else's life I regret the ways I hurt you when You trusted me I failed you But I don't regret the way you loved me While you were alive Amsterdam I never will forget you You're always on my mind You carried me through darkness I'll see you there in time Don't recall the words we spoke the last time You and dad came over Probably something bout the kids or how The money's always tight I was told you never leave the house Without the words, "I love you" No one told me it'd be the last time So I just said good night Amsterdam I never will forget you You're always on my mind You carried me through darkness I'll see you there in time I'll see you there in time I'll see you there
