Oh Amelia, oh Amelia A southern woman, a southern woman Never had a chance to say goodbye I met her back in sixty-three, She was such a mystery She was there on Barron Street, Down in New Orleans So wild, but yet so tame, She could calm a hurricane She was only seventeen And Amelia was her name Oh when I took her for a ride, She got close by my side And when I looked into her eye, Amelia kept me hypnotized But in my heart she fell, Oh, I got pulled into her spell I can still see her there, With the flowers in her hair Oh Amelia, my southern woman, oh my woman I can still feel you, feel you, Feel you, everytime I close my eyes Sweet Amelia, sweet Amelia Where did you run to We never had a chance to say goodbye Never heard her say goodbye I remember making love Underneath the stars above I can feel the summer breeze Up in magnolia trees That night in the southern light, The girl she took me by the hand I was weak as a little lamb, But I became a man Love was pumping through my veins, Her lips were sweet like sugarcane We rode all night in the rain, 'Cross lake Poncetrain She had a heart as fine as fire, Burning innocent desire I can still see her there, With flowers in her hair Oh Amelia, oh Amelia A southern woman, a southern woman I can still feel you, Everytime I close my eyes Sweet Amelia, sweet Amelia Where did you run to, where'd you run to We never had a chance to say goodbye Never want to say goodbye Just like a shooting star, She vanished in the night But I'll always remember Her lips so warm and tender And in my heart She'll always shine so bright Sweet Amelia, if I could just See her one more time Oh Amelia, my southern woman A southern woman, I can still feel you, oh I can feel you, Everytime I close my eyes, close my eyes Sweet Amelia, sweet Amelia Where did you run to We never had a chance to say goodbye (Never, never, never, never never say goodbye) Oh Amelia, oh Amelia A southern woman, a southern woman I can still feel you, Everytime I close my eyes Sweet Amelia, sweet Amelia Where did you run to We never had a chance to say goodbye Oh Amelia, a southern woman, A southern woman I can still feel you, Everytime I close my eyes, From the bottom of my heart Sweet Amelia, sweet Amelia, Where did you run to Where did you run to We never had a chance to say goodbye
