Amanda, You're a Beautiful

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Amanda, you came in laughing, rain on your sleeve Chuck in his little jacket, tugging you down the street You wave off every bottle with a practiced little frown Then lace your boots and take that Yorkie out of town [Pre-Chorus] You’ve got your own small orbit, your own stubborn rules And I keep finding reasons to be a little foolish [Chorus] Amanda, you’re a beautiful mess in the best way Taking Chuck for a walk at the end of the day You dress up like Clayton, grin wide as the sky And I’m the lovesick kid trying not to ask why Amanda, you turn every ordinary night Into something I’ll remember when the morning gets bright [Verse 2] You say juice is a crime and the clinic can wait You trust your own judgment, don’t need my debate Chuck gets the front seat and the softest old chair You fix Clayton’s collar, then toss back your hair [Pre-Chorus] You’ve got your own small orbit, your own stubborn rules And I keep finding reasons to be a little foolish [Chorus] Amanda, you’re a beautiful mess in the best way Taking Chuck for a walk at the end of the day You dress up like Clayton, grin wide as the sky And I’m the lovesick kid trying not to ask why Amanda, you turn every ordinary night Into something I’ll remember when the morning gets bright [Bridge] Let the whole world argue, let the hours run late You and Chuck come wandering through the garden gate Clayton’s coat on your shoulders, that fearless little smile I’d walk beside you, mile after mile [Final Chorus] Amanda, you’re a beautiful mess in the best way Taking Chuck for a walk at the end of the day You dress up like Clayton, grin wide as the sky And I’m the lovesick kid who is glad you’re nearby Amanda, you turn every ordinary night Into something I’ll remember for the rest of my life [Outro] Chuck pulls ahead, you laugh, and I fall in time Amanda, your strange little world fits next to mine
