Artist/Band: Joan Baez
Lyrics for Song: Amsterdam
Lyrics for Album: Play Me Backwards [1996]



(written by Janis Ian and Buddy Mondlock)

Just the pattern of sunlight on a building

Just a flash in a window I was passing

Just a frame in a movie I remembered

Amsterdam

Just the sound of a wheel in the gravel

Just the click of a heel on the pavement

Just a moment like any other moment

Amsterdam

I remember your lips, I remember your eyes

And the taste of the kiss and your graceful goodbye

You lied

Goodbye

Just the scent of perfume on the linen

Just the print of a palm on the pillow

Just the hint of the moon through the window

Amsterdam

Just a ghost in the steam on the mirror

Just a shadow of motion in the water

Just a need to look over my shoulder

Amsterdam

I remember your lips, I remember your eyes

And the taste of the kiss and your graceful goodbye

You lied

Goodbye

Just two lovers asleep in the silence as I watched from the door

Just the weight of a heart as it's falling, nothing more

I remember your lips, I remember your eyes

And the taste of the kiss and your graceful goodbye

You lied

Goodbye
