Over deze songtekst:
Amanda was de eerste single voor Boston sinds 1978. Uitzonderlijk voor de jaren '80 is dit een nr 1 hit zonder bijhorende videoclip. Het was ook hun eerste en enige nr 1. Dit zorgde voor een heruitgave van hun vorige albums die opnieuw met succes verkochten. Schrijver van het nummer is Boston frontman Tom Scholz. De naam Amanda is louter gekozen omdat het goed klinkt. Algemeen is het nummer een liefdesliedje.
Babe, tomorrow's so far away There's somethin' I just have to say I don't think I could hide what I'm feelin' inside another day Knowin' I love you. And I, I'm gettin' too close again I don't wanna see it end If I tell you tonight would you turn out the lights and walk away Knowin' I love you? I'm gonna take you by surprise and make you realize, Amanda I'm gonna tell you right away, I can't wait another day, Amanda I'm gonna say it like a man and make you understand, Amanda I love you. And, I feel like today's the day I'm lookin' for the words to say Do you wanna be free, are you ready for me to feel this way I don't wanna lose you. So it may be too soon, I know The feelin' takes so long to grow If I tell you today, will you turn me away and let me go? I don't wanna lose you. I'm gonna take you by surprise and make you realize, Amanda I'm gonna tell you right away, I can't wait another day, Amanda I'm gonna say it like a man and make you understand, Amanda (Oh, girl!) You and I, I know that we can't wait And I swear, I swear it's not a lie, girl Tomorrow may be too late You, you and I, girl, we can share a life together It's now or never And tomorrow may be too late, ohohoho And feelin' the way I do I don't wanna wait my whole life through To say I'm in love with you.
