lyrics

July on West-Kruiskade, one bag by the door

Tram four rolled empty, I watched from the floor

Your texts went silent at twenty past eight

I kept my keys on the table and stayed at the gate

Suitcases rattled on the stairwell tile

Maps folded shut, then gone for a while

I heard the harbor cough in the heat

Then the kick hit hard under my feet

I stayed, I stayed, I stayed, I stayed

Here with the heat and the dust we made

I stayed, I stayed, I stayed, I stayed

Rotterdam summer, I stayed

At Coolsingel I cut through the rain

Half of the shutters came down on the chain

Ice in my bottle, sweat in my shirt

Your train left early, mine went to work

Empty bikes lean on the station wall

Flyers peel off where the hard drops fall

I bite on the words that I never said

And the floor keeps shaking beneath my bed

I stayed, I stayed, I stayed, I stayed

Here with the heat and the dust we made

I stayed, I stayed, I stayed, I stayed

Rotterdam summer, I stayed

At six in the morning, the bakery glowed

I bought two rolls on Nieuwe Binnenweg road

One for my mouth, one for the days

When every last moving truck pulled away

I stayed, I stayed, I stayed, I stayed

Here with the heat and the dust we made

I stayed, I stayed, I stayed, I stayed

Rotterdam summer, I stayed
