Mandy Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I remember all my life
Raining down as cold as ice
Shadows of a man, a face through a window
Crying in the night, the night goes into

[Verse 2]
Morning, just another day
Happy people pass my way
Looking in their eyes, I see a memory
I never realized how happy you made me

[Chorus]
Oh Mandy, well, you came and you gave without takin'
But I sent you away, oh Mandy
Well, you kissed me and stopped me from shakin'
And I need you today, oh Mandy

[Verse 3]
Standing on the edge of time
I walked away when love was mine
Caught up in a world of uphill climbing
Tears are in my eyes and nothing is rhyming

[Chorus]
Oh Mandy, well, you came and you gave without takin'
But I sent you away, oh Mandy
Well, you kissed me and stopped me from shakin'
And I need you today, oh Mandy
[Bridge]
Yesterday's a dream I face the morning
Crying on the breeze, the pain is calling

[Chorus]
Oh Mandy, well, you came and you gave without takin'
But I sent you away, oh Mandy
Well, you kissed me and stopped me from shakin'
And I need you today

[Chorus]
Oh Mandy, well, you came and you gave without takin'
And I sent you away, oh Mandy
Well, you kissed me and stopped me from shakin'
And I need you today

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
