The Dutchman's not the kind of man[00:00:06]

To keep his thumb jammed in the dam[00:00:09]

That holds his dreams in [00:00:13]

But that's a secret that only Margaret knows [00:00:20]

When Amsterdam is golden in the morning [00:00:25]

Margaret brings him breakfast [00:00:29]

She believes him [00:00:32]

He thinks the tulips bloom beneath the snow [00:00:38]

He's mad as he can be but Margaret only sees that sometimes [00:00:42]

Sometimes she sees her unborn children in his eyes [00:00:48]

Let us go to the banks of the ocean[00:00:58]

Where the walls rise above the Zuider Zee [00:01:05]

Long ago I used to be a young man[00:01:11]

But dear Margaret remembers that for me [00:01:17]

The Dutchman still wears wooden shoes [00:01:27]

His cap and coat are patched with the love[00:01:30]

That Margaret sewed there [00:01:33]

Sometimes he thinks he's still in Rotterdam [00:01:39]

He watches the tug-boats down canals[00:01:45]

And calls out to them when he thinks he knows the Captain [00:01:48]

Till Margaret comes[00:01:58]

To take him home again[00:01:59]

Through unforgiving streets that trip him though she holds his arm [00:02:03]

Sometimes he thinks he's alone and he calls her name [00:02:09]

Let us go to the banks of the ocean[00:02:19]

Where the walls rise above the Zuiderzee [00:02:25]

Long ago I used to be a young man[00:02:31]

But dear Margaret remembers that for me [00:02:37]

The windmills whirl the winter in[00:02:47]

She winds his muffler tighter[00:02:50]

And they sit in the kitchen [00:02:52]

Some tea with whiskey keeps away the dew [00:03:00]

He sees her for a moment calls her name [00:03:05]

She makes his bed up singing some old love song [00:03:09]

She learned it when the tune was very new [00:03:18]

He hums a line or two they hum together in the dark [00:03:23]

The Dutchman falls asleep and Margaret blows the candle out [00:03:29]

Let us go to the banks of the ocean[00:03:41]

Where the walls rise above the Zuiderzee [00:03:47]

Long ago I used to be a young man[00:03:54]

But dear Margaret remembers that for me[00:04:00]
