Serge Devant - Sweet Harmony

Oh, Amelia My 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 I can still feel you every time I close my eyes Sweet Amelia, where did you run to? We never had a chance to 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 land, the girl, she took me by the hand And 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 the 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, my Southern woman I can still feel you, every time I close my eyes Sweet Amelia, where did you run to? We never had a chance to say goodbye Just like a shooting star, she vanished in the night But I'll always remember her lips so warm and tender 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 I can still feel you every time I close my eyes Sweet Amelia, where did you run to? We never had a chance to say goodbye Oh Amelia, my Southern woman I can still feel you every time I close my eyes Sweet Amelia, where did you run to? We never had a chance to say goodbye Oh Amelia, my Southern woman I can still feel you every time I close my eyes Sweet Amelia, where did you run to? We never had a chance to say goodbye Oh Amelia, my Southern woman I can still feel you
