ELLE
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
(spoken) What's wrong?

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

EMMETT
Wait, where are you going?

ELLE
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
Elle, you should know...

ELLE
(spoken) Callahan hit on me.

EMMETT
(spoken) He what?

ELLE
(spoken) He kissed me. He fired me. There's no reason for me to stay.

EMMETT
What about love?
I never mentioned love
The timing's bad, I know
But perhaps if I 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...

ELLE
Back to the sun
Back to the shore
Back to what I was before

EMMETT
Please will you open the door

ELLE
Lie on the beach
Dream within reach
Don't stray beyond

EMMETT
We both know you're worth so much more

ELLE
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
