Amsterdam
She ties up the rabid dog
And waters the frozen flowers
Steps off the dirty ground
And climbs up the neon ladder
3.30 AM
The silence, the mayhem
There'll be no Christmas this year
The red lights are melting
Mirjam is counting
The stars over Amsterdam
She runs down the avenue
And dreams yet a thousand paces
Twirls in her diamond shoes
But trips on the silver laces
The Koffieshop-Krishnas
Sell clouds of amnesia
Snow White's a bargain today
The red lights are melting
Mirjam is counting
The stars over Amsterdam
It seemed like a good idea
At the time
What happened to you that day
Could happen to anyone
The big world is shrinking
Mirjam is thinking
The moon licks her skin
Every night
The red lights are melting
Mirjam is counting
The stars over Amsterdam
And waters the frozen flowers
Steps off the dirty ground
And climbs up the neon ladder
3.30 AM
The silence, the mayhem
There'll be no Christmas this year
The red lights are melting
Mirjam is counting
The stars over Amsterdam
She runs down the avenue
And dreams yet a thousand paces
Twirls in her diamond shoes
But trips on the silver laces
The Koffieshop-Krishnas
Sell clouds of amnesia
Snow White's a bargain today
The red lights are melting
Mirjam is counting
The stars over Amsterdam
It seemed like a good idea
At the time
What happened to you that day
Could happen to anyone
The big world is shrinking
Mirjam is thinking
The moon licks her skin
Every night
The red lights are melting
Mirjam is counting
The stars over Amsterdam
