[00:14.22]The Dutchman's not the kind of man
[00:17.61]To keep his thumb jammed in the dam
[00:22.62]That holds his dreams in
[00:28.95]But that's a secret only Margaret knows
[00:35.07]When Amsterdam is golden in the morning
[00:39.60]Margaret brings him breakfast
[00:42.90]She believes him
[00:49.83]He thinks the tulips bloom beneath the snow
[00:54.78]He's mad as he can be, but Margaret only sees that sometimes
[01:02.22]Sometimes she sees her unborn children in his eyes
[01:11.34]Let us go to the banks of the ocean
[01:18.57]Where the walls rise above the Zuiderzee
[01:19.86]Long ago, I used to be a young man
[01:34.74]And dear Margaret remembers that for me
[01:43.59]The Dutchman still wears wooden shoes
[01:47.13]His cap and coat are patched with love
[01:51.90]That Margaret sewed there
[01:58.05]Sometimes he thinks he's still in Rotterdam
[02:04.44]He watches tug-boats down canals
[02:07.92]An' calls out to them when he thinks he knows the Captain
[02:19.05]Till Margaret comes to take him home again
[02:24.21]Through unforgiving streets that trip him, though she holds his arm
[02:33.15]Sometimes he thinks that he's alone and calls her name
[02:40.20]Let us go to the banks of the ocean
[02:45.48]Where the walls rise above the Zuiderzee
[02:50.37]Long ago, I used to be a young man
[03:02.73]And dear Margaret remembers that for me
[03:12.36]The windmills whirl the winter
[03:15.69]She winds his muffler tighter
[03:18.81]They sit in the kitchen
[03:26.64]Some tea with whiskey keeps away the dew
[03:33.03]He sees her for a moment, calls her name
[03:37.47]She makes the bed up
[03:39.57]Humming some old love song
[03:47.64]She learned it when the tune was very new
[03:52.92]He hums a line or two, they hum together in the night
[04:00.00]The Dutchman falls asleep
[04:02.58]And Margaret blows the candle out
[04:10.20]Let us go to the banks of the ocean
[04:17.58]Where the walls rise above the Zuiderzee
[04:21.45]Long ago, I used to be a young man
[04:31.47]And dear Margaret remembers that for me
[04:38.49]Let us go to the banks of the ocean
[04:45.60]Where the walls rise above the Zuiderzee
[04:48.48]Long ago, I used to be a young man
[04:59.85]And dear Margaret remembers that for me
