Amy's got a precious heart That's much too big for a young life's start There's too much that she tries to comprehend She cannot stand it She's giving all she's got To get along, to get them off To get off all those troubles on her soul She's out of control Amy's only seventeen When she got out of the velvet scene She really had the feeling to be all alone She's been far from home She's giving all she got
To get along, to get them off To get off all these troubles on her soul Such a heavy load I came to know her Once in my life And I hope the next time She changed her way of keeping memories Just as she likes them to be remembered She has got to do it on her own Everybody's got to leave her alone She has got to do it on her own Everybody's got to leave her alone
