It's 5 a.m. in Amsterdam
And this is how I know
Not by the voice on my portable radio
The batteries are old
It's 5 a.m. in Amsterdam
And this is how I know
Not by a digital watch
I don't even own one
It's 5 a.m. in Amsterdam
And this is how I know
Not by a traveler's clock
It wound down long ago
Is a bell ringing in my head?
I remember you once said
"It's just a trick of lightning, Michelle
Tripping over power lines"
I'm living alone now
It's 5 a.m. in Amsterdam
And this is how I know
There's a church beside a park
And it fills the dying dark
With five strokes
There it is again
Did you hear that?
Did you hear that?
Did you hear that?
