[Verse 1]
Why do I hold in my tears when I'm driving through Amsterdam
And I ask you what you remember about this town from your childhood
You tell me you remember your parents fighting
Pulling each others' hairs
You remember an uncle who might have had surgery on his neck
Because he smoked so much
So he would smoke through the hole in his neck
You remember how much your mother cared for you
How little your father cared about you
How you really don't like the woman who stole your father from you

[Chorus]
These are the memories that cross your mind
With more unclearer there by your side
Stories you tell me before we part ways
I kiss you goodbye and cry on the train

[Verse 2]
I was so mean to you about like teenagers do
Couldn't see what you see in Christianity
But if Jesus helps you head up high as you grieve your broken family
Then who I am to hold that against you?

[Chorus]
These are the memories that cross your mind
With more unclearer there by your side
Stories you tell me before we part ways
I kiss you goodbye and cry on the train
