Lost in Amsterdam
Parov Stelar Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I met her in Amsterdam, 2000.
Brown hair and blue eyes.
Oh my god! Yes! She made me nervous.
And suddenly, a moment full of harmony.
She came over and asks: Do you want to dance?
And I said: Yes!!!

I never thought that this could happen next to me
I've always felt secure.
But, she killed, like poison never that you could feel...
and I cry for more.
I was falling as all the flowers die,
And hope that you came...
One day, to find a place, where all the souls are lying.

What had I ever done to deserve this
My shadow gazes up to the sky
I was falling
As all the flowers are dying,
and i hope that you come one day, and find the place
where all the souls are lying

I never thought that this could happen next to me
I've always felt secure.
But, she killed, like poison never that you could feel...
and I cry for more.
I was falling as all the flowers die,




And hope that you came...
One day, to find a place, where all the souls are lyïng.

Лучшее что я когда-либо слышал. Переслушиваю эту песню больше 10 лет.

@netrunner77

Listening to this, walking around the center of A'dam, drunk or high at 5:30, when the town is not crowded and you can barely see any person or car, after spending the night in bars/pubs/clubs around leidsplein, it s one of the best feelings ever.
