Cover art for Amsterdam lyrics by Imagine Dragons

I'm sorry, mother I'm sorry, I let you down- i let down the people close to me Well, these days I'm fine - No these days I tend to lie-i am lying right now because guess what in reality I'm not fine I'll take the West train, just by the side of Amsterdam-im trying to escape from the mess i have made Just by my left brain, just by the side of the Tin man-i already gave my heart away to the tin man no he can have my brain too its not like i was using either of them

I'm sorry, brother I'm sorry, I let cha down- again i let down the people close to me Well, these days you're fine, no these days you tend to lie-i am lying right now because guess what in reality I'm not fine You'll take the West train, just by the side of Amsterdam-im trying to escape from the mess i have made Just by your left brain, just by the side of the Tin man-i already gave my heart away to the tin man no he can have my brain too its not like i was using either of them

Your time will come if you wait for it, if you wait for it- love will come soon just be patient It's hard, believe me I've tried-being patient is hard i would know because I had to go through this too But I keep coming up short-I never was patient i could never wait

I'm sorry, lover you're sorry; I bring you down-Im sorry i wasn't patient enough to let our relationship slowly grow; so you pulled away because I brought you down Well, these days I try and these days I tend to lie- I say i tried hard to keep you from going but thats a lie; i just let you go without a hard fight Kinda thought I was a mystery and then I thought I wasn't meant to be-i thought no one could figure me out and no one would ever figure me out You said yourself fantastically, "Congratulations you were all alone"-his lover said yea you were all alone because it was just him pulling her through the realtionship

Your time will come if you wait for it, if you wait for it It's hard, believe me I've tried Your time will come if you wait for it, if you wait for it It's hard, believe me I've tried

But the rain won't fall for the both of us The sun won't shine on the both of us Believe me when I say, that I wouldn't have it any other way --nothing can come from this anymore;he has pushed her away too much and he's letting her go so she can be better

Your time will come if you wait for it, if you wait for it It's hard, believe me I've tried But I won't wait much longer 'cause these walls they're crashing down And I won't wait much longer 'cause these walls they're crashing down And I keep coming up short --im trying to let you go and be patient so i can find someone new but i can't wait much longer because the barriers he put up to keep her out are coming down and he knows he won't get he back because he's not good enough for her patient, wondrous love
