Goodbye, Amélie

[ELTON JOHN] Amélie Goodbye, girl Amélie I give you your wings Fly so free And join the angel choir, girl And teach them to sing Amélie Beats me, girl Why you had to bid this planet adieu Let me be the first to say Merci, girl That means, "Thank you!" We're an ocean of rowboats You decided to save Lifting us to the shoreline Like a wave When your harp and your halo hit the sky Look down, we'll be waving goodbye! Amélie Our flashlight How we see when the power blows Shine on me like a thousand Zippos No! A zillion Zippos! Half-blind a blizzard On a slippery slope You are up at the summit With a rope When your harp and your halo hit the sky Look down, we'll be waving goodbye! [ANGELS] Oh, where will we go? Oh, who will appease us? You're nicer than Oprah, bigger than Jesus! [ELTON JOHN](ANGELS) Oprah! (And Jesus) And you get a car! And you get a car! (We shout from the hills) Yeah! We shout! [ANGELS] We shout from the hills We shout from a mesa You’re half Santa Claus Half Mother Teresa [AMÉLIE](ELTON JOHN) (Amélie) Saving orphans! (Amélie) Stopping fires! (Amélie) I've got the high notes And I'm singing with the choir! Yeah! [ELTON JOHN] You're perfect! Yeah! [ANGELS] Yeah! [ELTON JOHN] Yeah! [ANGELS] Yeah! [ELTON JOHN] Yeah! [ANGELS] Yeah! [ELTON JOHN] YEAH!!
