For Amanda

Artists : "On My Way" : For Amanda

Well I've written a dozen and two
For everyone that I know.
But still there are two people left
On my list to go.
So I'm sitting down to write again,
This one is for Them,
Of all the things I wished we had
That we'll never have again...

Amanda my darling,
I'm sorry for what must be
Amanda my lovely,
Please don't think bad of me
If it had been my choice and
My decision to love you
I would have been there by your side
You must believe it's true

I never thought there'd come a day
When you both would be lost,
And now that day has come around
And no one knows what it has cost
A young father and a lonely one,
Who loved his daughter dear
Even though they never knew each other,
And never were near.

So I walk and I walk
And I run and I run
No where left to turn to
As I turn away from the sun
Picking a direction
For my life to go
One away from everything
I never got to know

That's the way my life has gone
Gone away from what I'd like to know
People now dead, so far away...
My love for them, I never got to show...

So I'll watch and I'll wait
And I'll dream and I'll cry
And I'll scream out again and again
Please god, Why?
You never did anything worthy of this
Amanda and Melanie, death in sweet bliss
Still I will love you
Until my last breath
And I'll hope that one day
Some love I can give
To another young child
This one yet again my own
And that I can be with them
Until they are grown...

So I walk and I walk
And I run and I run
No where left to turn to
As I turn away from the sun
Picking a direction
For my life to go
One away from everything
I never got to know

So I walk and I walk
And I run and I run
No where left to turn to
As I turn away from the sun
Picking a direction
For my life to go
One away from everything
I never got to know

That's the way my life has gone
Gone away from what I'd like to know
People now dead, so far away...
My love for them, I never got to show...

So I walk and I walk
And I run and I run
No where left to turn to
As I turn away from the sun
Picking a direction
For my life to go
One away from everything
I never got to know

That's the way my life has gone
Gone away from what I'd like to know
People now dead, so far away...
My love for them, I never got to show...
