park amsterdam (the whole story) Songtext
von Maaya Sakamoto

One day, sitting in a tree
I couldn′t help but notice you there in the park
You weren't like all the others
You could fit me in your pocket
And just seemed so large

But then you really tried to talk to me
We chatted all about your mom and everything
And if somebody pointed out the fact you have no wings
Wouldn′t mean a thing

And like a dream, we saw the world together
"Goodbye" to differences
"Hello" to each other
Harmony, unity, day and night (you and me)
You and me (you and me)
And paradise (and paradise)


Met the queen and hearts while out dancing on the lake
And she asked us to a party
"You can bring some friends, but don't be late"
Climbed aboard a bus and it drove us to the castle
But we didn't have to pay ′cause the driver was the jester′s brother
Sadly, sighed the king 'cause somebody took his cake (pancake)
So we gave him some of ours and he smiled so wide
He ate his plate

He asked you to sing (sing)
And I won′t forget the faces (sing)
Or that awful melody
You and jester singing out of key
Not a better time (time)
Could be had for all the moment (time)
The king beamed, "Allow me please"
"Let my balloon take you across the ocean"

You and me across the ocean in his balloon
You and me and harmony

Didn't try to put me in a cage of your convenience
Like some others have
Instead, you took me to your favorite garden in Manhattan
And we had a laugh

Along the way, I fell in love with you
Don′t think that I could ever get enough of you
And if somebody pointed out the fact that you can't sing...
Wouldn′t mean a thing
