Hi All,

Here's an updated version of a song I wrote many years ago when I lived in Amsterdam for a short time.

This is called Amsterdam Rain.

Shuffling down a narrow street
The fog's so thick I can't see my feet
I'm worlds away from where I once belonged
I hear Eric Andersen in the night
His words pull me along but I do not fight
The song repeats a sad refrain
I think the last time I saw you
It was 2 in the morning
And you were walking through the Amsterdam rain

Stumbling through the cafe door
I take my seat as it begins to pour
I'm thinking about New York in the Autumn time
Times Square and movie lights
Seem so big and burn through the night
Beneath my feet I feel the subway train
I think the last time I saw you
You were waving down a taxi
And running through the Amsterdam rain

Paper cups blow past my feet
The rain has passed and Holland's half asleep
It's 2am as I begin to roam
Walking briskly through the town
Canals lead the way to where I'm bound
I feel the ghosts of these old neighborhoods
I think the last time I saw you
It was 2 in the morning
And you vanished in the Amsterdam rain

Yeah, the last time I saw you
You were there in the doorway
And you vanished in the Amsterdam rain
