'amelie' original london cast - post mortem lyrics

Loading...

[man]
a service was held the next sunday at 9
on a mild yet overcast day

[woman]
three neighbours were there

[women]
plus a cousin from 10 miles away

[ensemble]
and with her father taking the urn in his hand
and a glass of wine all to herself
ohhh

[amélie]
maman was interred on the shelf

(spoken)
salut, papa. what’s that?

[raphaël, spoken]
a mausoleum for your maman’s ashes

[amélie, spoken]
a gnome?
[raphaël, spoken]
maman hated it
so i will always think of her when i see it

[ensemble]
ohhh
eleven years later and all that she knew
was that times for dreamers were hard
with papa growing distant
and a garden gnome keeping guard

and so she packed up her baggage
and all of her bags
and some cash she had saved in her drawer
and ohhh

[man]
she carried it straight out the door

[ensemble]
ohhh

[amélie, spoken]
au revoir, papa

[ensemble]
ohhh
ohhh
oh, everyone is falling
as the fly comes into view
and everyone’s connected
though they may not know it’s true
they form a trail of breadcrumbs
but what are they leading to?
