Amazing Jane

(Album: A Day At The Beach - 1995)

Amazing Jane
She lived
On the corner of the street
In a doorway on the street
Oh, right next to me
As I would leave my house nearly every day
She would go on about her way
She would go on about her way
And I'd go mine

People would say that she's crazy
But she would say, oh if they only knew
Oh, there ain't no redemption no redemption
When you're stone cold sane
But crazy is just another point of view

From a house on a hill by the waterside
She'd been working for a family
With a young boy on the ceiling all alone
They would go by themselves to the lake
To try to stay afloat
They'd tried to catch some wind
And sail their boat away sail away

People would say that he's crazy
But amazing Jane would say
He only knows what is true
Spending all his time, all his time in a sandbox
Writing nursery rhymes, nursery rhymes
Crazy is just another point of view
Crazy in this world just another point of view

She'd walk in circles talk in tongues
People would fear and sympathize
They believed she sees the world
Through an angry eye

Amazing Jane she died
Sleeping in the rain
She was sleeping when the angels came
To take her away
She was in the arms of a saint flying to the sky
When I looked up to say goodbye
Laughing while I cried
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye yeah

People thought I was crazy
Oh, if I ain't crazy you know I will be soon
There ain't no redemption, no redemption
When you're stone cold, stone cold sane
Crazy, crazy, crazy
Just another point of view
Crazy is just another point of view

Hallelujah, sister
Hallelujah, providence has come
Hallelujah, sister
Hallelujah, kingdom come

Amazing Jane may have been all alone
But she wasn't beholden to no one
Amazing Jane may have been all alone
But she wasn't beholden to no one

Hallelujah, sister
Hallelujah, providence has come
Hallelujah, sister
Hallelujah, kingdom come
