Amsterdam

Flying – across the North Sea,

Flying – to Amsterdam

Coming into the airport lights,

Playing tricks with my crazy mind,

Don’t know where I’m going to,

Coming down from this endless flight;

Flying – across the North Sea,

Flying – to Amsterdam,

The whole world is moving slowly,

Spread my arms right out across the land;

Got to get out of the state we’re in,

I’ve been down since I don’t know when,

Spending too long with my head in my hands,

Sitting and dreaming about Amsterdam;

Flying – Across the North Sea,

Flying – to Amsterdam,

The whole world is moving slowly,

Spread my arms right out across the land;

Amsterdam with her heart on fire,

Walk her streets with your feet on ice,

Amsterdam is a- calling me,

Tell you now that I won’t think twice;

Little angel with her heart on fire

Staring at me beneath the airport lights,

On one hand restless – on one hand as snow,

She reminds me of Italy,

Bringing out this romance in me,

Like Sophia Loren when she was seventeen.
