Amélie

And I thought that I would meet you on the street How silly of me it was to think That my powers could transcend these foreign lands Now I cry softly solemnly Imagining a version of myself Lying in love with my man And I listen to the song from Amélie (We met an angel named Sylvie) (She said Versaille was like a beautiful cage) On a little music box (She walked us to the palace) That I bought down in the gift shop (She asked my name) Where I swung that pendulum (She carried her fruit basket) Asked it if I should give up (With a smile on her face) Definitely (We met an angel named Sylvie) It did tell me (It was the perfect day) Oh heaven knows how hard I tried To have the perfect angel vibe Had all my friends there for the ride I had a day to shine my light Now I have nothing left my distant friend And you're headed to New York just 'cause you can A few hours from my city But you'll never even miss me I let hope go that night I cried Unlikely dreams consumed my mind Oh to be yours just for the night You'll never know You'll never know How hard I tried Nothing gold can stay my dear That's what people say my dear Optimism fades my dear Now my day is gray my dear I'll play Amélie my dear Until I fall asleep my dear But the pain remains my dear And I'm so afraid That I'll become dark and loose my light That led me to dream so big and bright I let hope go that night I cried Now you'll never know me And you'll never know How hard I tried To find you
