Amsterdam Stranded

Down by the muddy harbor

For many a restless night

Have I been walking

Down by the muddy harbor

For many a restless night

Have I found myself talking

And much to my surprise

I found that 've been wrong for so long now

I found that I've been wrong

I found that I've been wrong for so long now

I've been to New York City

I've seen the world at large and it's hurting

It took a lot of pain to get me where I am

That's for certain

I've felt the arms of God

And I've felt the Devil's kisses

In the Nighttime

I thought I'd seen it all

Just to watch it fall like curtains

Just to watch it come down to this



I'm Amsterdam stranded

And it's taken for granted that I'm singing

But one of these days

I will be leaving

I've got leaving on my mind

Gonna leave it all behind

That's for certain

I'm tired of waisting time

Chasing this high

Oh, sweet burden...



How did we end up like this?
