Amanda

Lyrics

Amanda
By John Lauterjung

She’s got a way about her like a queen on a guilded throne,
And I was trying to avoid her loving,
She was coming on way too strong.
Oh! Well it turns out she’s afraid of love.
(She can’t take it, no, she can’t fake it)
She was fooling around from the start.
(Acting like she was in love)
But, oh! Now she’s gone and stole my heart.

Amanda, I love ya, I just can’t get enough!

Well, she was trying to tell me,
About the way that she feels inside.
Well, every time that she sees love coming,
She just wants to run and hide.
Oh, she says she’s safer out on her own.
(She doesn’t have to please anybody)
Oh, she’d rather be a rolling stone.
(No time to be a lover)
Oh, but she doesn’t want to be alone.

Amanda, I love ya, I just can’t get enough!

Well, you may wonder how a man can love
A woman whose heart is blind.
It isn’t hard to understand,
Love makes me want to try.
Oh! Well, there’s no more need to pretend.
(It’s not up to me anymore)
Oh! There’s no win or lose in the end.
(Just give and take what you can)
Oh! But I’m always going to be your friend.

Amanda, I love ya, I just can’t get enough!
