Amsterdam Lyrics by Mungo’s Hi Fi

Amsterdam

2017

[Verse 1 - Eva Lazarus]
Broke up with my man and went to Amsterdam alone
So I packed a bag and I called a cab, I switched off my phone
Empty chair next to me, just my luck window seat
I'm already loving being on my own
I'm already loving being all alone
In a little cafe with a little high grade, maybe it's a little too strong
But when in Rome l, I do as the Romans do build me up a spliff or two
Inhale exhale say hi - hi - to the new
[Hook - Eva Lazarus]
Needed to get lifted
Needed to get lifted after you
Needed to get lifted
Needed to get lifted after you
Needed to get lifted
Needed to get lifted after you
Needed to get lifted
Needed to get lifted after you
[Verse 2 - Eva Lazarus]
If you're waiting for the smoke to clear keep waiting
My whole week Is eating nuff origami preeing paintings
I will never feel alone, jamming with Van Gough and Frida Kahlo
Bun the stress and bun the trouble, floating around the city save up in this bubble
You couldn't burst if you tried, hate to say it to you killed my vibe You killed my vibe and harshed my buzz
Life is blessed, till there was us
Rode until the wheels fell off, crushed the whole thing into dust
Dug a hole, buried us nothing left to reconstruct
Last few months were kinda dead, saltiness the sourness
Them kind of flavours ain't the one, need some seasoning some rum Need to jet, needed fun, need to do it on my ones
Need to get you off my cloud, heaviness it brings us down
Put some space between us, then put the sea between us, cool of this heat between us
I wasn't wrong was right to leave us, behind
Been kinda low and I needed to climb
Hurt for a second but giving it time, I am on my j's and it's feeling so nice
'Dam's a healer booked a flight
[Hook - Eva Lazarus]
Needed to get lifted
Needed to get lifted after you
Needed to get lifted
Needed to get lifted after you
Needed to get lifted
Needed to get lifted after you
Needed to get lifted
Needed to get lifted after you
[Verse 3 - Eva Lazarus]
Part timer in the city, set the trail ablaze
Eyelids kind of heavy but I'm wide-awake
Broken from the day we had to separate
But I'm feeling so much better now I'm miles away
In a haze lose myself for days
Find myself again boarding on a plane hungry for a change
Little change of scene, colour it in green
Sprinkle it with herbs
Happy in my world never been better
[Hook - Eva Lazarus]
Needed to get lifted
Needed to get lifted after you
Needed to get lifted
Needed to get lifted after you
Needed to get lifted
Needed to get lifted after you
Needed to get lifted
Needed to get lifted after you
