Counting Crows On A Tuesday In Amsterdam Long Ago

Tekst piosenki

[Verse 1]
A picture of Amsterdam
Bare trees under glass
Framed in the gray and white afternoon light
Of a winter long past

When I was a riser
To Dublin I’d roam
She was a bareback rider
Some miles from home

[Chorus]
Come back to me
Come back to me
Come back to me
Come back to me

[Verse 2]
She’s a carnival driver
Hung in the sky
Cutting through time like a memory
Strung on a wire

The color of anything
Fades in the air
She is the film of a book of the story
Of the smell of her hair

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
When everything’s over
Everything’s clear
Everyone’s older
And no one is here

I try to remember
A girl on a wire
Tumbling and diving above Stephen’s Green
Like a kite on the air

[Chorus][x2]

[Outro]
Come back to me
Come back to me
