Amsterdam Canals

Linda McLean


Amsterdam canals Johnny Cash is never coming back 
Heard it on the walls, broken hearts will remember 
Riding into town its a heavy load keeps you right down a bumpy ride into the centre of things 
Roll along the stones to water flow running through this life I know, To what I meant to be 
Amsterdam Canals Johnny Cash is singing September 
How can you know, how can you know my soul 
Count the steps down into the street the saddest sound in history love is carried away 
I see you watching love where lovers meet get your mind back see the past is just a beautiful thing 
Amsterdam Canals Johnny Cash is never coming back 
Heard it on the waves, oh, oh oh they're playing our songs 
Come on sadness we'll take the long way round, 
We'll take all the time we need to see the beautiful things, 
I want to roll along this way til I can figure out what's worse, 
What I lost, what I lack, or what I'll never have 
Amsterdam canals, Johnny Cash is singing September 
Smooth the sails, may the warm winds bring us closer 
to Amsterdam, to Amsterdam Canals, to Amsterdam
