Lyrics The New Amsterdams

The New Amsterdams

Every Double Life

These are models of my own design

Two circles never meeting

One in 92 and 95

And it's all been up to me

May not listen to my own advice

It can be so overwhelming

There are strains on every double life

But you won't hear me complain

Yes it's true

You knew

You believed it

You should just turn

And walk away

Took a compliment and photograph

Committed it to memory

Model of how not to act

At least not imitate

Wouldn't it have been ideal

If it all fell down from heaven

How am I supposed to feel

When I know what you did wrong

Yes it's true

You knew

You believed it

You should just turn

And walk away

Yes it's true

You knew

I was leaving

We're under the same sky line today
