Lyrics
You can lay right there next to her
And you're feeling so unsure
You can never breathe at ease
She will keep you on your knees
And yet you still will try
You will stay there by and by
And you know it's just a fool
Who'd stay and think that people really change
Like an old oak tree with deep strong roots
There are some things that cannot be moved
And it seems they just go stronger as they age
Like the other man who came and went
She will always sing this sad lament
Of the man who could not fix Amanda Jane
Every line on her pretty face
It's a person, it's a place
Things that time cannot erase
Things that you will never face
Yet, you think that she would care
If you said that you'd stay there
And hold her through the night
Don't you know by now
You only can distract?
Like an old oak tree with deep strong roots
There are some things that cannot be moved
And it seems they just go stronger as they age
Like the other man who came and went
She will always sing this sad lament
Of the man who could not fix Amanda Jane
You can try
Get down on your knees and pray
But if He answers
I know just what He would say
See even Jesus could not give his life to save
The broken heart of poor Amanda Jane
The broken heart of poor Amanda Jane
The broken heart of poor Amanda Jane
The broken heart of poor Amanda Jane
The broken heart of poor Amanda Jane
The broken heart of poor Amanda Jane
The broken heart of poor Amanda Jane
Like an old oak tree with deep strong roots
There are some things that cannot be moved
And it seems they just go stronger as they age
Like the other man who came and went
She will always sing this sad lament
Of the man who could not fix Amanda Jane
