Amsterdam
[Verse 1] Come on, oh, my star is fadin' And I swerve out of control And if I, oh, if I'd only waited I'd not be stuck here in this hole
[Verse 2] Come here, oh, my star is fadin' And I swerve out of control And I swear I waited and waited I've got to get out of this hole
[Chorus] But time is on your side It's on your side now Not pushin' you down and all around It's no cause for concern
[Verse 3] Come on, oh, my star is fadin' And I see no chance of release And I know I'm dead on the surface But I am screamin' underneath
[Chorus] And time is on your side It's on your side now Not pushin' you down and all around, oh It's no cause for concern
[Outro] Stuck on the end of this ball and chain And I'm on my way back down again Stood on a bridge, tied to a noose Sick to the stomach You can say what you mean, but it won't change a thing I'm sick of the secrets Stood on the edge, tied to the noose And you came along and you cut me loose You came along and you cut me loose You came along and you cut me loose
