Canals of Amsterdam

My fear has settled in
Like the canals of Amsterdam
I see romance in the cobblestones among debris and trash
Looking for love wrongly, I am a display in the glass
For strangers, under the red light
I only know the eyes of men who know my disguise

I know no one, I know no one
And no one dares to know

My trust is a rag doll, wearing thin, running out
You can't hold me to nothing now
And I saw your face in every town that I was in across the seas
But I tend to let it go when I'm with others in my sleep
Some I just meet, some mean nothing
They mean nothing to me

I wanted someone, I wanted someone
But someone never wanted me
