lyrics
On a train to Amsterdam
I write these words to you
Swans drift down the canal
We’ll all be home soon
See the colors along the roads
And the glasses lifted high
To the ones who left too soon
To the ones left behind
I catch a stranger’s eye
Through the window of the train
Under a painted sky
I wonder what you’d say
See the colors along the roads
And the glasses lifted high
To the ones who left too soon
To the ones left behind
