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
