Gregory Alan Isakov - Amsterdam Lyrics






All inside our Amsterdam she hides
Watery-eyed
That howling wind, she's waving hi
Her other hand's in mine

Oh silhouette
She's growing tall and fine
She's got my back
She'll follow me down every street
No matter what my crime

All inside our Amsterdam she flies
Hoarding the kites
That howling wind, she'll take everything
But she's easy on the eyes

Churches and trains
They all look the same to me now
They shoot you some place
While we ache to come home somehow

    This is a rip off of Red House Painters: All Mixed Up.

    So glad I discovered you at sleepy hours of a very early Morning when everything is so quiet and still .. just perfect timing

  17. c.... ....

    such a lovely thing to hear this magic

  18. E.... E....

    Your songs are like winter sunlight, takes away all the coldness. Quite happy to find you.

  19. A.... M....

    I thought I was listening to All Mixed Up by Red House Painters in the beginning.

  20. 2.... ....

    This is a very beautiful song. The music. The vocals. Sublime.

  21. M.... M....

    how if i could meet isakov once !

    I walked down the aisle to the version of this song with the Colorado Symphony Orchestra. Couldn't ask for a better song <3

    M.... ....

    I applaud your choice, and congratulations on your wedding!

  23. E.... O....

    I just came across this masterpiece and it belongs to my autumn songs now. :)

  24. s.... s....

    I'm obsessed with this song

  25. a.... v....

    What's this kind of music called.. especially in the beginning

    a.... v....

    Indie folk

    a.... v....

    music, it's just really good music. It has elements of many different styles and can't really be pigeonholed. Though most would call it indie folk

  26. A.... Z....

    Beautiful production! Love how it looks homemade!

  27. D.... D....

    And here I am, thinking music was dead. All manufactured corporate shit these days. Maybe I've just been looking in all the wrong places...

    D.... D....

    That's what I was thinking too and then this incredible music comes along.

  28. L.... L....

    This guy is great. If you like this you should listen to Kaleo. They're similar to this

  29. M.... ....

    Girls!
    Adam driver is the goat!

  30. S.... R....

    I think this might actually be my favourite song in the whole world

  31. a.... ....

    what kind this music is ? pls tell i mean what genre it is specifically

    a.... ....

    Indie folk would be my guess

    a.... ....

    I've seen Gregory Alan Isakov's music categorized as indie folk in several websites. Check his website; it has an interesting biography. This is from his website: "Many musicians have day jobs to make ends meet. However, few artists maintain the lifestyle kept by Gregory Alan Isakov. The Colorado-based indie-folk artist is a full-time farmer who sells vegetable seeds and grows various market crops on his three-acre farm, while also tending to a thriving musical career." - https://gregoryalanisakov.com/biography

  42. W.... W....

    Chord by chord, frame by frame, word by word - this is a work of genius. Woke up with this song resonating from a dream - ding, diddy, ding . . . ding, diddy, ding . . . ding, diddy, ding, ding, diddy, ding . . . ding - d’ding.

  43. D.... W....

    I’ve had a really hard day with my anxiety. My chest has been so tight for the most part. I’m now laying in bed with this song on and reading my bible, feeling at ease.

  44. F.... x....

    you know when you listen to or see something and its so beautiful it makes you sad?

  45. C.... ....

    What a Song.......makes you want too go outside and scream "Why isn't everybody listening to Amsterdam"

  46. W.... Y....

    I was recruited to play baseball on the east coast. My dad and I took a tour of a few other schools in New England we decided to drive up into the Boston area from Long Island. I was gassed so I feel asleep for an hour while he drove. When I woke up, this song was playing while we drove through Providence in Rhode Island. I had never felt so at peace. There was nothing to say and we just sat and drove through the town on a beautiful sunny day during the summer. I'll always remember that feeling of serenity and genuine happiness. It was a really cool moment with my Dad and I'll remember it for the rest of my life. Thanks Greg.

    W.... Y....

    That is so beautiful😊

    W.... Y....

    Love the story

  47. S.... W....

  55. s.... ....

    Help with best Gregory A.I. songs?

    s.... ....

    What do you mean?

    s.... ....

    Listen to the music from "That Sea, the Gambler", "The Weatherman" and "This Empty Northern Hemisphere" to start. Those complete albums are here on YouTube. He has other albums, but I have not listened to those yet.

  56. V.... L....

    I heard this song yesterday live and I cried. How beautiful!

  57. M.... B....

    My wife and I got married to this song in 2015. As you can imagine, we put careful thought into it. A testament to how much we love this guys music. I saw him for the first time in 2011 at a music festival in Alberta, the crowd was speechless with one guy saying after it was over "man I just lost myself there for 40 min".

  58. M.... P....

    Great job on the video team!! Just wow,and set to another fantastic GAI song, is perfect..very stimulating on many levels..I think I will be back!!..thx 🙏🏻✌🏻️❤️

  59. M.... V....

    There is something about Amsterdam..
    That city is one of a kind.

    M.... V....

    Indeed. 😍

  60. D.... B....

    Lilting sweet voice. He's an amazing artist.

  61. F.... T....

    I’d love to wake up to the smell of you cooking breakfast but you’d be lucky to turn sides in bed without me knowing. No matter how deep of a sleep I’m in I’ll always know when you move. I’m asleep because youre still. You’re in my arms and comfortable. You’re there and I’m there and it all makes sense. The world freezes to your breaths and I’m lost within those moments.

    F.... T....

    This is beautiful. I remember having those thoughts and feelings. It was long ago, though

  62. C.... C....

    genius art.

  63. T.... N....

    I'll send you a message. Every time I type in this it just dumps me.

  64. T.... N....

    I love watching videos of the men in the ad before this video Jordan Peterson is super bright.

  65. M.... B....

    06/09/2018// for anli, blythe and leona: i’ll be sure to think of you when i make it there: to strawberries in amsterdam

  69. D.... N....

    This is one of my favorite videos on youtube

  70. K.... E....

    I love this song and video, I'm a folk music fan and discovered Gregory last year . He's now my favorite . He is so talented I love this music. It is too bad no one has heard of him but I kinda appreciate that at the same time. I wouldn't want everyone listening to the same music as me .

  71. T.... B....

    I'm here because of Goodnight Moon.

  72. I.... a....

    One of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard in my life, and a very wonderful video to accompany it. It makes me think of waking up to a beautiful morning next to a the most beautiful woman I know, my wife, and how much she's gone through with me, how much she's carried me. Imagine waking up in a new country, traveling the entire world with her. Seeing, hearing, tasting, experiencing new things we have never done before. Sharing the love we have with only each other as the sun sets over Amsterdam. The look in her eyes as we head to rest from the long adventurous day, and how she seems so worn and tired with her make up washed away, but still more beautiful than the Moon herself now full-bellied and bright through the window. Feeling like i'm about to cry of joy every time before I kiss her, and finally falling asleep tangled in each others arms.
    Greg takes me there with this song, even though im still waiting to meet the girl of my dreams.
    I will find her someday. I know this.
    Because no matter how many times churches and trains take me away from my grief temporarily, nothing will compare to
    coming back home to rest in the bed with the one woman I love.
    Thank you Greg.

  73. D.... i....

    YESSSSSSSSS!

  74. B.... S....

    This song continues to make me cry

  75. J.... B....

  77. j.... a....

    His voice transports me like no other . I saw him live recently and stood in the crowd listening with tears streaming down my face

  78. T.... ....

    beautiful song and video.....bliss!

  79. N.... K....

    Great song

  80. M.... M....

    this song and this video is magical.

  81. J.... C....

    I saw his show in billings earlier this month and it was amazing!! The best live show I have ever been too!! I will see him again and again!!!!

  82. l.... ....

    Love this guys music - funny though, i think his live stuff is better

  83. d.... ....

    This is one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen in life. Bless you.

  84. m.... ....

    7 years I waited to see him play live. I'd have waited 7000.

  85. m.... ....

    Where has this song been all my life...

  86. M.... ....

    Oh, how I love that magical, unique city!

  87. G.... ....

    Just heard this on the lovely opening of the GIRLS season premiere - now I have to look up his other music!

  88. O.... ....

    girls brought me here

  89. D.... i....

    Simply incredible.

  90. M.... ....

    This song is pure and uncorrupted magic!

  91. G.... F....

  92. B.... T....

    28 pelotudos.

  93. R.... B....

    "hash tag # not used"

  94. D.... G....

    I hope record labels and manager's don't corrupt him like it has many great musicians as he gets into the mainstream music industry. This guy is the best lyricist I've heard in awhile. The way he captures the emotion of things. His beautiful music never gets old.

    D.... G....

    Doroteo Garza he's been writing and singing for a good decade now, he's not going to change his style in a bad way.

  95. D.... L....

    That was just about perfect

  96. m.... f....

    just an algerian comment passing by :)

  97. J.... G....

    sigh.............how lovely

  98. S.... S....

    good commercial feel good music
