5 AM in Amsterdam

Is a bell ringing in my head?
I remember you once said
"It's just a trick of lightning, Chel'
Just tripping over power lines"
I'm living alone now...

It's not clear if the sound I hear
Is just the ringing in my ears
There it is again...
Did you hear that?!

It's 5 a.m. in Amsterdam
and this is how I know
Not by a voice on my portable radio
The batteries are old

It's 5 a.m. in Amsterdam
and this is how I know
Not by a digital watch
I don't even own one

It's 5 a.m. in Amsterdam
and this is how I know
Not by a traveler's clock
It wound down long ago

It's 5 a.m. in Amsterdam
and this is how I know
There's a church beside a park
And it fills the dying dark
With five strokes
There it is again...
Did you hear that?!
Did you hear that
