Amy's gone and time rolls on
How far, how fast, how long?

The last time we saw Amy
She was headed for the shore
Fighting off the volatile gray skies

She said,"Now begins forever"
And that no one knows their time
We bid farewell not knowin'
That might be our last goodbye

Amy was a fighter, she cut like Casius Clay
She burned like a fire despite these rains
Where time was a question, she only knew one song
She's singing,"How far, how fast, how long?"

Salvation is a fire
In the midnight of the soul
It lights up like a can of gasoline

Yeah, she's a freedom fighter
She's a stand up kind of girl
She's out to start a fire
In a bar code plastic world

Amy was a fighter, she cut like Casius Clay
She burned like a fire despite these rains
Where time was a question, she only knew one song
She's singing,"How far, how fast, how long?"

Everything stops moving
And I stop to catch my breath
And ride my train of thought
All the way round

My thoughts return to Amy
The fire she's begun
She came when we were freezing
Left us burning up

Amy was a fighter, she cut like Casius Clay
She burned like a fire despite these rains
Where time was a question, she only knew one song
She's singing,"How far, how fast, how long?"

How long, how long, how long?

Last time we saw Amy
Last time we saw Amy
Last time we saw Amy
Last time we saw Amy
Last time we saw Amy
