Cars by the water
Water that makes this place stand still
Looks like they're thinking
Thinking of jumping
I wake to the church bells
Playing those funky tunes, 'Hey Jude'
Up in the tower
Carillonneurs thumping
I'm trying to love you but you treat me like a hotel
You're coming and going but you never say where
I'm trying to love you but I see your heart is elsewhere
Amsterdam says goodnight
I'm dragging my suitcase
Through Chinatown and the The racket it's making banging a tourist
Now this is my home
Though these roots will only ever be so long
It is what it is
I'm trying to love you but you treat me like a hotel
You're coming and going but you never say where
I'm trying to love you but I see your heart is elsewhere
Amsterdam says goodnight
I'm trying to love you but you treat me like a hotel
You're coming and going but you never say where
I'm trying to love you but I see your heart is elsewhere
Amsterdam says with steel in her voice
I may seem rude to you but I prefer that you were straight
And not have to wade through the bullshit between the lines
I know I'm beautiful and I shouldn't work but I do
And I can do better than you
