Lightning downs the bridge tonight
A solitary figure's plight
Ferryman's rhythm guides me through
City's pulse beneath the dew
In Amsterdam's liquid night
A hidden world takes flight
Secret whispers swirling by me
Velvet shadows, mystery
Cocooned in fog and in the dark
I find my heart's secret spark
Underneath this iron lace
Where tales of love and vice take place
Whispers twist like serpent tongues
A Mediterranean rhythm thrums
Glinting eyes from silhouettes
Amsterdam's secret streets
In Amsterdam's liquid night
A hidden world takes flight
Secret whispers swirling by me
Velvet shadows, mystery
Cocooned in fog and in the dark
I find my heart's secret spark
Underneath this iron lace
Where tales of love and vice take place
Your touch ignites a firefly
In secret chambers of the heart
Where hidden langauges flutter by
And passionate voices never part
Cocooned in fog and in the dark
I find my heart's secret spark
Underneath this iron lace
Where tales of love and vice take place
As morning light begins to seep
The city's pulse begins to keep
A steady beat once more, I step
Into the sunlit streets once more
