Highway To Amanda

Lyrics

[Verse 1] He saw me, he saw Amanda Walking down the highway Crying like the whole wide world Had turned its face away Hands in her pockets, shaking For love and support Like a broken little echo At the edge of a road [Pre-Chorus] Then he pulled right over Said, “Baby, come inside” The rain on the windshield Couldn’t hide her eyes [Chorus] He took her to a diner Took her to a diner Poured warm light in her hands Later on, he gave her a diamond Gave her a diamond And she believed in love again (again, again) [Verse 2] Boots on a farmhouse porch now Baby cries at dawn Little feet on kitchen linoleum Where the old hurt’s gone They built a life from hard times Out past the county line Every scar became a story Every night became a sign [Pre-Chorus] And when the wind got lonely He’d hold her through the dark Saying, “I found you crying Now I’m keeping your heart” [Chorus] He took her to a diner Took her to a diner Poured warm light in her hands Later on, he gave her a diamond Gave her a diamond And she believed in love again (again, again) [Bridge] Now the fields all know their names The barn door swings like a hymn What was lost there on the highway Found a home and settled in From the county road to forever From a tear to a vow Amanda’s got the life she dreamed of And it starts right here, right now [Chorus] He took her to a diner Took her to a diner Poured warm light in her hands Later on, he gave her a diamond Gave her a diamond And she believed in love again (again, again)
