"Glory Girl" is about Amanda's older sister
I heard a song today
reminded me of Spain
We were the innocent in springtime
I never liked you much
We never keep in touch
I know your stories from the grapevine
and though I found it strange
to watch the change
when what you couldn't say was
look at me, look at me
chorus
My glory, glory girl
Help me to find a way to know you
let's show the world
My glory girl
Hide not behind the words that bind you
You don't owe the world
my glory girl
Let's show the world
I heard you say today
you've thrown your life away
but dreams of happiness aren't wasted
You tried to reach the moon
you grew up too soon
denied the freedom that you tasted
But all the tragedy helps me discover you
repeat chorus
My glory, glory girl
Help me to find a way to know you
let's show the world
My glory girl
Hide not behind the words that bind you
You don't owe the world
my glory girl
repeat chorus
My glory, glory girl
Help me to find a way to know you
let's show the world
My glory girl
Hide not behind the words that bind you
You don't owe the world
my glory girl
