A wandering young woman in the streets of Amsterdam
Turning little circles in the streetlights and looking for her man
But every 'he' is a nothing and she remains alone
She knows every street but somehow lost the way home
Mary Jane Cage, and her middle name is Jean
That's her name and all she seems to be
She gave her heart to the fireworks, in vain
So now all she does is waiting for some rain
To make it come back to her again
That night, the last night of the year
Mary Jane whispered sweet things in your ear
She watched the starry night from the back of your bike
Hoping to be loved for once, instead of being liked
Mary Jane Cage, and her middle name is Jean
That's her name and all she seems to be
All you said was "well, see ya later" when the sun came up again
So from there she walked away empty, looking for a man
Like many times before
And so the story continues, or ends, with an empty bottle of champagne
Waiting for her heart to come back with the rain
'Cause fireworks never last for long
A new lesson learned when she finally got home
