1
She was not the girl next door
2
But the girl from 'round the corner
3
It was at the tail end of grade four
4
When she came to school one morning
5
And all eyes were upon her as she took her seat
6
Her name was Amanda with pretty eyes of green
7
And hair of blonde, strawberry blonde
8
Springtime and dandelions
9
And summer 'round the corner
10
Was at the tail end of age nine
11
With a million dreams before her
12
She lived with her mother in an old decrepit house
13
If there was trouble she kept it to herself
14
All summer long, the strawberry blonde
15
And by her face there was no way to tell
16
It seemed like all was well in her world
17
But the neighbours said
18
Her mother had lost her will
19
To gin and sleeping pills
20
It was no life for a little girl
21
Still I see her face framed in blue sky
22
At the top of a slide coming down
23
And when the sirens wailed
24
(her mother had failed to rise)
25
All the neighbours stood outside
26
As Amanda just stared at the ground
27
Time flies and years are piled
28
I'd forgotten all about her
29
When I saw her down the aisle
30
Of a streetcar with her daughter
31
Then I heard Amanda say as she got up
32
"C'mon Samantha, girl, this is our stop"
33
And they were gone
34
Two strawberry blondes
