Amanda is in love with the sight of the moon
She's got pale green stars in her room
Right above her bed

Put them on the ceiling
Leave on the light
When the sun goes down then the stars might shine

Shining in the dark
Skinny little girl in her room alone
She's got hell to spare in her home

If you can call it a home
Doesn't want to be like anybody else
When no one is around she talks to herself

I can hear her in the night
Hey, hey yeah
It's hard on a girl

When the blood won't come when it ought to come
It's hard on a girl
When you try to walk around on the shaky ground

Hey, hey
Daddy's going away
Scared little girl watching Aladdin on TV

Amanda always cries when you yell at me
Yeah, please don't yell at me
Climb up all the stairs

Close the door
Doesn't want to hear us fighting anymore
Yeah, better call it a day

Hey, hey yeah
It's hard on a young girl
She thinks it's all her fault when it all goes wrong

It's hard on a grown man too
See my baby crying at the window calling out my name
Hey, hey

Daddy's going away
She's got pale green stars in her room
