The Man From Amsterdam

He was a lonely man
Moved out from Amsterdam
Nobody paid him mind
A skipped over storyline
Tongues let their gossip loose
But i wouldn't know what true
He was a lonely man

Taking my own advice
I walked with him once or twice
He learned then forgot my name
Asleep on the 7 train
And everyone knew the truth
That I was in love with you

He was a lonely man
Come out from Amsterdam
Shopped at the salad bar
For almonds and caviar
He was the man from Amsterdam

An open day waiting for someone
Hang around, hang around
Thе lonely child knows where it comеs from
Run along, run along

He was a lonely man
Shipped to New Amsterdam
Nobody knew his name
A bird in a hurricane
Coming around the block
I'd like to take a walk with you

Left work and took a ride
Down to the riverside
We cheered when Obama won
And everyone had so much fun except
The man from Amsterdam
