I've Been to Holland Songtext

von Joe Purdy

I walked down this brick road
Ignoring the busload
The sleepers are down for the count
And I'll never forget on the day that we met
Last night when we painted the town

We screamed and we ran,
Streets of old Amsterdam
Looking for payphones to call
Yeah, but none of our loved ones
Would quite understand
Sometimes we just live for the fall

And I've been to Holland and I've been to New York
And I've seen the Golden Gate Bridge
And I've done the things that my parents have dreamed but I ain't never seen nothing like this

She came to LA from the red Georgia clay and I loved her right from the start
And she took my eye like a thief in the night and I know she's stolen my heart
She knows that i loved her she knows that U missed her I wish she was standing right here
At the end of each day I still lay down and pray for just one chance to see her again

And I've been to Holland and I've been to New York
And I've seen the Golden Gate Bridge
And I've done the things that my parents have dreamed but I ain't never seen nothing like this

And I look to my right as a man on a bike says his sons been hiding two days
And if I missed you more I would head for the door but I can't find the door anyways
I don't speak the language nor all of the anguish that causes me to ask twice
I don't know much but I know that I love the Dutch cuz they don't have to try and be nice

And I've been to Holland and I've been to New York
And I've seen the Golden Gate Bridge
And I've done the things that my parents have dreamed but I ain't never seen nothing like this
And I've been to Holland and I've been to New York
And I've seen the Golden Gate Bridge
Oh, and I've done the things that my parents have dreamed but I ain't never seen nothing like this
I ain't never seen nothing like this
Oh, I ain't never
I ain't never
Oh I ain't never
I ain't never
Oh, I ain't never
I ain't never
I ain't never
I ain't never
I ain't never seen nothing like this.
