Amanda (U) light of my life

In my lifetime i never know who is Amanda and i never meet her also, but few months back i'm in touch with Don Williams famous song titled with 'Amanda' and what i can share here is "'It's nice to listen when you are in mood!"

As usual, in order to get more details about 'amanda' i'm helpless again! at last, through net search engine i've got some information:-

Amanda: The name Amanda is a baby girl name. The name Amanda comes from the Spanish origin. In Spanish the meaning of the name Amanda is: From the Latin word amanda, meaning "lovable."
Amanda is a Latin gerundive name meaning "(female) that must be loved" or "worthy of love". In the majority of the seventeenth century, the freshness of Restoration drama in England included the creation of bright new character names, especially for women. Most of them had a Latin root. The name "Amanda" first appeared in 1212 on a birth record from Warwickshire, England, and five centuries later the name was popularized by poets and playwrights.

Now, i know who is amanda and i think i will still love this song too!!


I've held it all inward Lord knows I've tried
It's an awful awakenin' in a country boy's life
To look in the mirror in total surprise
At the hair on your shoulders and the age in your eyes
Amanda (U) light of my life fate should have made you a gentleman's wife
Amanda (U) light of my life fate should have made you a gentleman's wife

There's a measure of people who don't understand
The pleasure of life in a hillbilly bandI got my first guitar when I was fourteen
Now I'm over thirty and still wearing jeans
Amanda (U) light of my life...
