The Commute Home (Original London Cast Recording)

Amélie has no boyfriend. She tried once or twice, but the results were a letdown. Those five years haven’t changed a thing... Amélie still escapes into.... solitude

She walks home from work

Ev'ry night all alone

And nothing's changed

See you tomorrow

Bye bye, baby

Her neighbors all like her

But nobody knows her

And nothing’s changed

She likes taking teaspoons to crack crème brulee

And likes to skip stones at St. Martin canal

And nothing’s changed

While friends see the world

She stays home with their pets

And nothing’s changed

She’s gone on a few dates

And had a few boyfriends

But nothing’s changed

She likes to amuse herself

By asking questions like-

How many couples in Paris

Are having an orgasm right at this moment?

Fifteen

But later this evening her life will change

Later this evening her life will...

Change
