Amanda

Amanda (Version 2) - Don Williams

I've held it all inward

Lord knows I've tried

It's an awful awakenin'

In a country boy's life

When you look in the mirror

In total surprise

At the hair on your shoulders

And the age in your eyes

Amanda light of my life

Fate should have made you a gentle man's wife

Amanda light of my life

Fate should have made you a gentle man's wife

Well the measure of people

Don't understand

The pleasures of life

In a hillbilly band

I got my first guitar

When I was fourteen

Now I'm crowding thirty

And still wearin' jeans

Amanda light of my life

Fate should have made you a gentle man's wife

Amanda light of my life

Fate should have made you a gentle man's wife
