Netherlands

歌詞

Worn down brick and cobblestone Laid out in herringbone in the square Old man sitting on a milk crate Playing a squeezebox for spare change People pass by like he's not there Oh, but all his Old World waltzes seem to be In a minor key To a haunted man Lost in the Netherlands Sidewalk bar on a Sunday night Watching girls in skirts on bikes come and go Here's around for the one with the jonquil hair And another for the things I might have dared when I was younger If I'd only known Oh, tonight it seems like every memory Is in a minor key To a haunted man Lost in the Netherlands From a stained glass window pane Of an old church black with acid rain comes a light Candles flicker at the Virgin's feet And I want so badly to believe that someone Has got my back tonight Oh, but all my prayers they fall so hollowly No one answers me And I'm gone again Lost in the Netherlands
