Lyrics
We were busy closing down The only open bar we found The lights went out and they kicked us out You kissed me on a corner in China Town We got saved by a gypsy cab And that bottle of Johnnie Red you had Your hair messed up and your shoes untied I watched you sleeping in the morning light Now a different sun is sinking in the west Now a different heart is beating in my chest And I tried and tried, and tried again But I can't get back to New Amsterdam But I can't get back to New Amsterdam Down by the bridge on the lower east side Watching as the river goes rolling by Did you lose me? Did I lose you? Suppose it all depends on your point of view All these downtown streets still look the same I guess it ain't the bricks and stones that change And I tried and tried, and tried again But I can't get back to New Amsterdam Yeah, I tried and tried, and tried again But I can't get back to New Amsterdam
