Switchfoot - Amy's Song Lyrics
Amy's goneAnd time rolls onHow far? how fast? how long?The last time we saw AmyShe was headed for the shoreFighting off the volatile gray skiesShe said now begins foreverAnd that no one knows their timeWe bid farewell not knowingThat might be our last good-byeChorus:Amy was a fighterShe cut like Casius ClayShe burned like a fireDespite these rainsWhen time was a questionShe only knew one song:She's singing, "how far, how fast, howlong?"Salvation is a fireIn the midnight of the soulIt lights up like a can of gasolineYeah, she's a freedom fighterShe's a stand up kind of girlShe's out to start a fireIn a bar code plastic worldChorusWhen everything stops movingAnd I stop to catch my breathAnd ride my train of thoughtAll the way roundMy thoughts return to AmyAnd the fire she's begunShe came when we were freezingAnd left us burning upChorusHow long? (3x)The last time we saw Amy(5x)
