Amsterdam (This City) Songtext
An empty house was all I left her
When I drove away that day
And I cancelled my subscriptions
Way too cowardly to say
Promise me, don′t follow me
I'll disappear completely now
Leave this town without a single trace
Gonna find another way
It′s not that I don't like you baby
It's not that I don′t miss our nights
But you just scare me so much lately
When I stare into your lights
Don′t look for me, you'll find me gone
Faded memories remain
And much like the rain you brought
The thought of you evaporates
Eventually gone
This city it gives and then it takes
This city it sleeps and dreams and wakes
Suddenly a part of me
My heart is aching and hands are shaking
This city it builds and then it breaks
It′s pulling you in with cold embrace
Gradually it's drowning me
Void of feeling and thoughts are reeling
I know it hits you hard
Like the crash of a car
You think that I will come back to you
I think I′ll never come back to you
Despite the demons within
I'm driving further from sin
And all the comfort it gave me
And I will never get back to you
This city it gives and then it takes
This city it sleeps and dreams and wakes
Suddenly a part of me
My heart is aching and hands are shaking
This city it builds and then it breaks
It′s pulling you in with cold embrace
Gradually it's drowning me
Void of feeling and thoughts are reeling
Amsterdam I hate you
Amsterdam I'll miss you
Amsterdam I love you
When I drove away that day
And I cancelled my subscriptions
Way too cowardly to say
Promise me, don′t follow me
I'll disappear completely now
Leave this town without a single trace
Gonna find another way
It′s not that I don't like you baby
It's not that I don′t miss our nights
But you just scare me so much lately
When I stare into your lights
Don′t look for me, you'll find me gone
Faded memories remain
And much like the rain you brought
The thought of you evaporates
Eventually gone
This city it gives and then it takes
This city it sleeps and dreams and wakes
Suddenly a part of me
My heart is aching and hands are shaking
This city it builds and then it breaks
It′s pulling you in with cold embrace
Gradually it's drowning me
Void of feeling and thoughts are reeling
I know it hits you hard
Like the crash of a car
You think that I will come back to you
I think I′ll never come back to you
Despite the demons within
I'm driving further from sin
And all the comfort it gave me
And I will never get back to you
This city it gives and then it takes
This city it sleeps and dreams and wakes
Suddenly a part of me
My heart is aching and hands are shaking
This city it builds and then it breaks
It′s pulling you in with cold embrace
Gradually it's drowning me
Void of feeling and thoughts are reeling
Amsterdam I hate you
Amsterdam I'll miss you
Amsterdam I love you
