I learned at an early age
There's things in life that happen you can't explain
I still remember waking up that morning in June
There was pain in my parent's eyes when they broke me the news
They said there had been an accident
And Amanda was badly hurt
I remember the feeling in the air
Because we all didn't know what to do
So we prayed,
I kept thinking in my head she'd be okay
And in the hospital
It hurt us all so bad to see her that way
I have to live with that memory each day
Machines the only thing making her breath
Her hair still curled from the sweet sixteen
Where she spent her last hours dancing and being free
I try so hard to forget her laying there bruised and swollen
Such a beautiful life prematurely stolen
