Amsterdam In The Rain
Catch a flight, we could be in Spain by 5:00
On the beach, I could sweep you off your feet
In the sand, you could come home rather tan
I'm not sure, I feel life is somewhere more
Fated for the overture
As street lights that would set the scene
I don't want to waste no time
You could be at work by 9:00
Amsterdam in the rain
Amsterdam in the rain
Let me paint my parent's scene
She’s in a seat reading listings off of the TV
That night he must have proposed but he didn't quite
Off beat, said "You are going to marry me?"
There was a pause, then she laughed and said "Of course!"
It was fated for the overture
But I want streetlights to set my scene
I don't want to waste no time
You've got to be at work by 9:00
Amsterdam in the rain
Amsterdam in the rain
Amsterdam in the rain
Amsterdam in the rain
They'll say do it in your own way
Off route, do it in a way that suits you
And is it possible to refuse?
No ring, our relationship's a living thing
Romance comes in many forms
I'll just ask again at dawn
Stop wishing for fairy tales
Life is wonderful enough
Amsterdam in the rain
Amsterdam in the rain
Amsterdam in the rain
Amsterdam in the rain
