Friday treat: the words to Amelia so you can sing along with us!

Amelia
Amelia Amelia
Why did you leave Amelia
Amelia Amelia
You know I need you Amelia
Yeah Amelia Amelia
Why did you leave Amelia
Amelia Amelia
What I say

Cos you should know that I
Would never ever do you no wrong I swear
So why you go & break up with me
So give me just one more chance
You left a note to say that you are never ever coming back to me
You've found yourself somebody new
And now he's kissing lips I used to call mine

Amelia Amelia
Why did you leave Amelia
Amelia Amelia
You know I need you Amelia

And I hope that you one day
Will look back on the times that we had
when we were talking all the whole night through
Dancing until the sun came up
Because everybody knows that I never wanted anyone but you alone
What I wouldn't do for you
If you're ever in my arms again

Amelia Amelia
Why did you leave Amelia
Amelia Amelia
You know I need you Amelia
Amelia Amelia girl

And I hope that you one day
Will look back on the times that we had
when we were talking all the whole night through
Dancing until the sun came up
Because everybody knows that I never wanted anyone but you alone
What I wouldn't do for you
If you're ever in my arms again

Amelia Amelia
Why did you leave Amelia
Amelia Amelia
You know I need you Amelia
Amelia Amelia
Why did you leave Amelia
Amelia Amelia
You know I need you Amelia
Amelia girl

Oh Amelia girl
Oh Amelia girl
I said Amelia girl
Amelia
Amelia
Amelia
Amelia
Amelia
Said Amelia girl
Oh Amelia girl
Yeah Amelia girl
What I say
What I say
What I say




What I say
What I say
