We had the courage to talk
At a time talking is bleak
We had the angst to doubt
Our validity as freaksMesmerized by our own eyes,
We weep to our own tears
Sodomized by our own scars
Yet we toast to our fearsI love you, I do
Do your best to remember
Because one day I'll find you
On a cold night in NovemberAnd our breaths, they would mix
In the cold midnight air
I may breathe words to selfdestruct
But you breathe sunlight to repairAnd I see myself in you
I hope that you see yourself too
Way beyond Amsterdam I foresee
Is a table set for twoOh what an outright crime it is to believe
That you had not had a part
When youre a thief, and a good one at that
The thief who stole my heartAnd on these cold winter nights
Hear me say yes, I won't pass
I've never done a lot of things
But for you I'd have another glass
