ELTON JOHN:
Amélie
Goodbye, girl
Amélie
I give you your wings
Fly so free and join the angel choir, girl
Teach them to sing

Amélie
Beats me girl
Why you had 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

CHORUS:
Ooh

ELTON JOHN:
Amélie
Our flashlight

CHORUS:
Aah

ELTON JOHN:
How we see when the

ELTON JOHN AND CHORUS:
Power blows
CHORUS:
Ooh

ELTON JOHN:
Shine on me
You'rе like a thousand Zippos
No! A zillion Zippos

ELTON JOHN AND CHORUS:
Half-blind in a blizzard

ELTON JOHN:
On a slippery slope
You arе up at the summit

ELTON JOHN AND CHORUS:
With a rope

ELTON JOHN:
When your harp and your halo

ELTON JOHN AND CHORUS:
Hit the sky

ELTON JOHN:
Look down
We'll be waving goodbye
CHORUS:
Oh, where will we go?
Oh, who will appease us?
You're nicer than Oprah
Bigger than Jesus
We shout from the hills
We shout from the mesa
You're half Santa Claus
Half Mother Teresa

MOURNER [LUCIEN]:
She cared for the elders

MOURNER [GINA]:
And nursed the children

MOURNER [SUZANNE]:
She separated my recyclable waste

MOURNER [GEORGETTE]:
She stood in the soup kitchen at 3:30 AM

MOURNER [DUFAYEL]:
And defused bombs in the afternoon

MOURNER [RAPHAEL]:
Built wells in Malawi

MOURNER [LUCIEN]:
With her bare hands

NINO:
Goodbye Amélie Poulain!
I'll never love anyone as much as I loved you

CHORUS:
Oh, where will we go?
Oh, who will appease us?
You're nicer than Oprah

ELTON JOHN:
Oh
You get a car
And you get a car!
We shout

CHORUS:
Bigger than Jesus
We shout from the hills
We shout from the mesa
You're half Santa Claus
Half Mother Teresa

ELTON JOHN:
Amélie

AMÉLIE:
Saving orphans

ELTON JOHN:
Amelye

AMÉLIE:
Stopping fires

ELTON JOHN:
Amelow

AMÉLIE:
I've got the high notes and I'm

AMÉLIE AND CHORUS:
Singing with the choir

AMÉLIE:
Aah

ELTON JOHN AND CHORUS:
You're perfect and clever and sugar and lightning
