Track Insight / Lyrics
Fog on the water, city sleeps real slow
Hear the old trolley whistle, low and through the snow
Coin in my palm, a rusty five cent piece
Worn down like a memory, a forgotten release
Another car rolls up, headlights cut the haze
Mirror in the water, lost in a sleepy maze
Got my tollbooth throne, under this Amsterdam night
The city's a heartbeat, muffled in the fading light
Collecting stories, whispering in the breeze
Every face a journey, searching for some ease
Couple in the back seat, holding hands so tight
Truck driver lost in thought, eyes fixed on the headlights
Young girl singing loud, humming a tune so sweet
The sound of a lifetime, racing on this street
Got my tollbooth throne, under this Amsterdam night
The city's a heartbeat, muffled in the fading light
Collecting stories, whispering in the breeze
Every face a journey, searching for some ease
The fog rolls thicker, shadows start to play
Another day fading, washed away by the gray
But the rhythm keeps moving, a constant, steady sway
Just another bridge, crossing on this lonely way
Maybe I'm a guardian, a silent, steady guide
Watching them sail through, with nowhere left to hide
Just a flicker in the darkness, a flame within the cold
A story in each face, a tale yet to be told
The moon peeks through the clouds, a silver crescent gleam
Illuminating faces, lost in a whispered dream
The canal reflects the stars, a twinkling, shimmering scene
And the city holds its breath, in this nocturnal, serene
Got my tollbooth throne, under this Amsterdam night
The city's a heartbeat, muffled in the fading light
Collecting stories, whispering in the breeze
Every face a journey, searching for some ease
The dawn breaks over the city, a golden, hazy hue
Another day begins, bathed in a morning dew
And I stand here watching, as the world comes into view
Collecting stories, whispered in the morning blue
Got my tollbooth throne, under this Amsterdam night
The city's a heartbeat, muffled in the fading light
Collecting stories, whispering in the breeze
Every face a journey, searching for some ease
