Legally Blonde Songtext

Take back the books and pack up the clothes
Clear out the room and drop off the key
Leave with what's left of my dignity
Get in the car, and just go.

Chalk it all up to experience,
They said I'd fail but I disagreed
Who could say then where my path would lead?
Well now I know

Back to the sun, back to the shore
Back to what I was before
Back where I'm known
Back in my own very small pond

Laugh with my friends when I arrive
We'll drop the top and just drive.
That's fine with me, just let me be
Legally blonde.

Thanks for your help and for all you've done,
Thank you for treating me decently.

Emmett: What's wrong?

Elle: Maybe someday you can visit me
Give me a call, say hello

Emmett: Wait, where are you going?

Elle: I'm sorry I'm letting down everyone.

Emmett: What brought on this?

Elle: You did your best with a hopeless case.

Emmett: That's ludicrous

Both: You are the best thing about this place.

Emmett: Now you should know -

Elle: Callahan hit on me

Emmett: He what?

Elle: He kissed me, he fired me, there's no reason for me to stay

Emmett: What about love?
I never mentioned love
The timings bad I know
But perhaps if I'd made it more clear
That you belong right here
You wouldn't have to go
Cause you know that I'm so much in love.
Please don't go.
Please open the door
We both know we're worth so much more.

Elle: Back to the sun, back to the shore.
Back to who I was before.
Lay on the beach, dream within reach
Don't stray beyond
Some girls fight hard, some face the trial, some girls were just meant to smile

Emmett: If you can hear, can I just say, how much I want you to stay?

Elle: It's not up to me
Just let me be
Legally blonde.

Emmett: I need you to stay.

Elle: It's not up to me
Just let me be
Legally blonde.
