A Love Song for Amsterdam
guitar chords lyrics
The smokes stings my eyes
But it's a short walk from the mind
To where I'll end up tonight
The sound of footsteps echoing on century of streets
Will be my, my guiding light
The air is as intoxicating as
Every substance her provides
But if I, if I should not return
Or your song remains unheard
Will be a god damn shame
But know this
Every road I traveled,
Was a road back to you
O home, my journey in Amsterdam
I couldn't stay away for too long
Was a road back to you
O home, my journey in Amsterdam
I couldn't stay away for too long
I couldn't stay away for too long
On my way home, I know it seems
Tomorrow's only passing through
One day, maybe one day
My bones will rest with you
Stacey calls my name
Begs for me to stay
It breaks my heart to board that train
But I've done the math
There's no way I could stay
So I crawl back to the coast
Just like I always do
Just like I always do
A thousand days to lay
In the condition I was in
I was a god damn mess
But know this
Everyday I plotted
My escape route back to you
O home, my journey in Amsterdam
I couldn't stay away for too long
I couldn't stay away for too long
On my way home, I know it seems
Tomorrow's only passing through
One day, maybe one day
My bones will rest with you
Come to rest to you
If I should not return
Or the song remains unheard
That'd be a god damn shame
But know this
Every road I traveled,
Was a road back to you
O home, my journey in Amsterdam
I couldn't stay away for too long
I couldn't stay away for too long
On my way home, I know it seems
Tomorrow's only passing through
One day, maybe one day
My bones will rest with you.
