Jon Foreman - Amy's Song lyrics

Amy's gone And time rolls on How far? How fast? How long? The last time we saw Amy She was headed for the shore Fighting off the volatile gray skies She said now begins forever And that no one knows their time We bid farewell not knowing That might be our last good-bye Amy was a fighter She cut like Ca**ius Clay She burned like a fire Despite these rains When time was a question She only knew one song: She's singing "how far, how fast, how long?" Salvation is a fire In the midnight of the soul It lights up like a can of gasoline Yeah, she's a freedom fighter She's a stand up kind of girl She's out to start a fire In a bar code plastic world Amy was a fighter She cut like Ca**ius Clay She burned like a fire Despite these rains When time was a question She only knew one song: She's singing "how far, how fast, how long?" When everything stops moving And I stop to catch my breath And ride my train of thought All the way round My thoughts return to Amy And the fire she's begun She came when we were freezing And left us burning up Amy was a fighter She cut like Ca**ius Clay She burned like a fire Despite these rains When time was a question She only knew one song: She's singing "how far, how fast, how long?" How long? How long? How long? The last time we saw Amy The last time we saw Amy, yeah The last time we saw Amy The last time we saw Amy, yeah The last time we saw Amy
