Sister's Pickle Lyrics - Original Cast Of Amélie

[AMÉLIE] 

I could stay right here 

And give back the boy his book 

But if I stay right here 

He'll think that I'm a nun 

And I am not a nun 

He'll think that I am chaste 

And I am not that chaste 

Or I could run away 

Leave his book on the shelf by the lube and the lingerie 

But that means it's over 

Whatever this is, and I 

Really think I should wait 

Though it's hard to articulate why 

Or I 

Could stay right here 

And shake this habit off 

Just stay right here and say, "Hello" 

And say my name 

Say, "Here's your book" 

And, "What a place" 

And, "Hey, let's keep in touch" 

But that's way too much 

It's hard to go unseen 

At least in this instance with so little distance between 

Me and the boy and his book and the shop and the- Wow! 

I take a step to get out but my feet forget how 

Now it's me 

Just me against the door 

This isn't what I thought 

Although I think I want some more 

But not right now 

Now I need to go 

I'm not finished with the boy- I mean the book! 

So I will hold him-
