Nat Keefe

She's the hippie of her family
Amanda tried to blaze the trail
When there was nothing left to lose
She put on her walking shoes

Amanda sippin' a sun-warm soda
Havin' a cigarette after yoga
I taste the bitter with the sweet
Parading down main street
There for all to see, Amanda and me

(chorus:)
How I need that music to fill me
How I need that music to fill me
How I need to believe I'm doin' the best that I can
Through all these days I've been
Lost in the embrace of Amanda Lynn

She led me down the smooth dirt road
Amanda Lynn hummed a sweet melody
A wailin' and a moanin'
A tune for the long journey home

Amanda never frets about the weather
When the storm clouds gather
The sky turns to splendid shades
From pink, to green, and gray
There for all to see, Amanda and me
