It was always Amsterdam Where we would put the distance to an end We had a plan Gonna lay it out on a queen-sized bed Catching up on twenty-one Meet all your friends back home That was not what it was Broke it off on the telephone
It was always absolute Everybody said we were moving fast But now I’m pretty over school Switching out my books for the Eurail Pass And all these dreams of Amsterdam Where you’d surprise me with a yellow bike With a basket that didn’t match it That I guess I’ll never get to ride
Calling it a change of plans Just a building on a postal stamp A change of plans
Might’ve been a long shot Better that it’s gone if it’s gonna go But, man, you kinda messed me up ‘Cause I don’t have a place to go back home Is this just twenty-one And somethings gotta give? Well, I still got a bill For a ticket that I’m stuck with
Calling it a change of plans Just a building on a postal stamp Just calling it a change of plans Just a building on a postal stamp
Oh, we’re calling it a change of plans Just a building on a postal stamp There’s a change of plans There’s a change of plans
