Lyrics
at sunset,
started on my way
cross town.
i did a little bit of running.
snuck around this time
under the blanket of the night.
held a rose in one hand
and your letter in the other.
lipstick smeared,
you knew that i would notice.
a picture that i've never seen before
that tells me things i've never could ignore.
i was running in a garden in amsterdam,
the sun was down and in the sky there was nothing.
try to follow like it's part of the master plan.
you say stop, but i have to keep running.
i had looked through your window in the city,
your light was on like you knew i was coming.
when i was spotted, that's when you started singing.
you said to stay but i was already running.
at sunset, i tried to look sincere.
and why not? we are the hidden love of amserdam.
to tell the truth it's getting worse this way.
i wanted when i played this game
to touch your face to speak your name,
but i looked right in your eyes
and they burned me down,
you burned me down.
