Amy's got a precious heart 
That's much too big for a young life's start 
There's too much that she tries [bad word] 
She cannot stand it 
She's giving all she's got 
To get along to get them off 
To get off all those troubles on her soul 
She's out of control 

Amy's only seventeen 
When she got out of the velvet scene 
She really had the feeling to be all alone 
She's been far from home 
She's giving all she got 
To get along to get them off 
To get off all these troubles on her soul 
Such a heavy load 

I came to know her 
Once in my life 
And I hope the next time 
She changed her way of keeping memories 
Just as she likes them to be remembered 

She has got to do it on her own 
Everybody's got to leave her alone 
She has got to do it on her own 
Everybody's got to leave her alone
