Travis - New Amsterdam

Jean-Michel Basquiat, Francois Truffaut,

Robert Zimmerman and de Niro

Paris, Texas - end of the world

New York, New York,

good bye girl

And they meet

on Blaker Street

or the Park that is Central

oh no

I watched the sun go down

down down beneath the ground

and it’s a new day,

it’s a new dawn,

in New Amsterdam.

The stranger in the moonlight,

looks stranger in the moonlight

And they meet

on Blaker Street

or the Park that is Central

oh no

I watched the sun go down

down down beneath the ground

and it’s a new day,

it’s a new dawn,

in New Amsterdam.

And we meet

on Blaker Street

or the Park that is Central

oh no

I watched the sun go down

down down beneath the ground

and it’s a new day,

it’s a new dawn,

in New Amsterdam.

wait for the Hidden Track...

Sailing Away

What are we gonna do,

when you’ve stopped crying?

What ever you’re going through

it’s not worth dying.

Chasing away the blues,

I know you’re trying.

And nobody wants to lose,

I don’t know why.

Cause I live by the river,

live by the river and

I’ll die by the river

I’m sailing, away, today.

What are you gonna say

when they stop laughing?

You’re giving it all away

when you’ve got nothing.

How many times a day

you feel like walking?

Taking a holiday from

all the shy-y-y...

But I live by the river,

live by the river and

I’ll die by the river

I’m sailing, away, today.

Cause I live by the river,

live by the river and

I’ll die by the river

I’m sailing, away, today.

And you’ve got to grab

the bull by the horns my friend

it’s the only way to go.

And when the story’s told

we can go home.

So what are we gonna do,

when you’ve stopped crying?

What ever you’re going through

it’s not worth dying.

Keeping away the blues

you know I’m trying.

What’ve we got to lose,

and testify-y-y...

Cause I live by the river,

live by the river and

I’ll die by the river

I’m sailing, away,

I’m sailing, away,

I’m sailing, away, today.
