|
A sea of tiny sparkling lights |
|
Wait patiently to welcome you tonight |
|
The sleeping city lingers near |
|
While dreamers night walkers and ghosts drift here |
|
The clocks dance back and forward as time shifts so recklessly |
|
Just dusty grey and neon bright to count for company |
|
And the full moon over amsterdam |
|
The full moon over amsterdam |
|
Above the throng of tokyo |
|
A man of clouds stood with arms outstretched |
|
Held back the tide and gave my mind some rest |
|
How fast adventure you're come and gone |
|
And christmas cheer comes early to a floor of green and red |
|
It always seems there's one more flight till you can rest that heavy head |
|
But there's a full moon over amsterdam |
|
A full moon over amsterdam |
|
As we arrive in light we end in dark |
|
The choking cough of the singing lark |
|
Coming back to winter for you love is coming home |
|
And we're all travelling travelling travelling |
|
But we're not alone, we're not alone |
|
There's a full moon over amsterdam |
|
A full moon over amsterdam |
