Amsterdam Lyrics - Intriguer - Crowded House

You and me got the whole day off 

Take a trip to Vincent Van Gogh 

But the line went halfway 'round the block 

And we're looking for a place to rest 

Every seat in every bar was set 

So we turned back to The Grand Hotel 

And the rain came hard 

A million people on a protest march 

Every choice, every path was mistaken 

You and me got the whole thing sussed 

Gray man is shadowing us 

Wild conspiracies turn to dust 

Hear the sound of cathedral bells 

Cash ringing at the gates of Hell 

And fairground hooligans push and swell

They're the darkest days of a free man 

Lying in the streets of Amsterdam 

Nearly fell underneath the tram 

But I picked myself up 

Every temptation and device 

All the diamonds and the spice 

I would give anything for the sight 

Of an honest man, hey 

Eyes swim in emptiness 

I was looking at a hotel guest 

He blew me a big sarcastic kiss 

And the Lord walked in 

With a monocle and lips so thin 

Saw the bar man wink as he poured his brandy 

They're the darkest days of a free man 

Lying in the streets of Amsterdam 

Nearly fell underneath the tram 

But I picked myself up 

Photos 

Every temptation up in lights 

All the diamonds and the spice 

Could take profit from the vice 

Of another man 

Amsterdam 

Cold, cold 

Cold, cold 

You belong
