Amsterdam Songtext
von White Hinterland

In the rain in Amsterdam
I thought I saw you
In a window looking back
Over your shoulder

In the rain in Amsterdam
I was writing to you
On a postcard
I never bothered to send


There were doves
Circling above me
And tulips all around
What were you trying to tell me?
I could not make it out.

In the rain in Amsterdam
I thought I caught you
Bent over the canals
Gazing at your own reflection

In the rain in Amsterdam
I saw little of the city
Only water, so much water
Falling in a veil around me

Who′s to say how long
'Til this rain is done?
