you've been to Amsterdam
and understand history
you understand every book
that you've ever read
but you only hear noise
when you're talking to me

you've been to Amsterdam
and understand symphonies
and know so much Traviata
but you dont know me

so fly to Amsterdam
and talk about history
and talk about books you've read
and never talk to me again

so visit Amsterdam
and listen to symphonies
and look back on your life
skip the part about me
you can stay in Amsterdam
