Lyrics
Woke up and wished that I was dead
With an aching in my head
I lay motionless in bed
I thought of you and where you'd gone
and let the world spin madly on

Everything that I said I'd do
Like make the world brand new
And take the time for you
I just got lost and slept right through the dawn
And the world spins madly on

I let the day go by
I always say goodbye
I watch the stars from my window sill
The whole world is moving and I'm standing still

Woke up and wished that I was dead
With an aching in my head
I lay motionless in bed
The night is here and the day is gone
And the world spins madly on

I thought of you and where you'd gone
And the world spins madly on.

Wow. Just... wow. *_* That is everything I could have hoped for from a New Amsterdam vid! Great motion. Perfect musical choice; I love the song. And the mood and lyrics are so great for the character -- he is looking for love/death, but despite/because of that he's continuing to be a part of the world, not withdrawing from it, bustling and changing like New York City. Thank you, festividder!

What a wonderful song choice and lovely vid. I hadn't thought of this show in years and it reminded me how much I enjoyed it.

Interesting! I would not have thought of using that song because I always interpreted it as someone giving up on the world as it moves on without him. You did a great job of reinterpreting the song and I love how it works with the theme of moving on and engaging with the world! :)

I really enjoyed this, in fact, I think I'm going to track down this show. Somehow I missed it when it was on.

Such a perfect song for this show! All the lifetimes he's lived and all the people he's shared time with so wonderfully highlighted.

What a wonderful song-show match -- each adding meaning to the other. Great cuts, imagery, storytelling -- bringing out the emotion and meaning in the changing world. Well done!

Brilliant! I love that sudden pause at 1:24 with him looking contemplatively out the window. Perfect musicality.
