We've gotta help him.

Come on, guys, let's build a fire.

All the same,

we'll make it a thrilling wedding.

Why, it's a wonderful match! Mr. Mole

is the richest rodent for miles around.

Educated, well-dressed,

highly thought of....

Never mind that he can't see.

That's all the better.

How can I possibly marry Mr. Mole?

I don't love him.

Love? Love is what we read about

in books, my dear.

"Here Comes the Bride"

Is a lovely little ditty

But marrying for love

Is a foolish thing to do

'Cause love won't pay the mortgage

Or put porridge in your bowl

Dearie, marry the mole

True, it's a fact that he's not exactly witty

He's blinder than a bat

But at least his eyes are blue

His breath may be alarming

But he's charming for a troll

Dearie, marry the mole

Romeo and Juliet

Were very much in love

When they were wed

They honored every vow

So where are they now?

They're dead, dead

Very, very dead

Poor Thumbelina

Your brain's so itty-bitty

I hate to seem a pest

But I know what's best for you

Just think of all the ways

That you can decorate a hole

Take my advice

I'll bring the rice

Dearie, marry the mole

Marry the mole

Marry that mole

M is for money

Oh

L-E

Please be warm, dear friend.

Please live.

Poor little swallow. I'm sorry

for all the trouble I've caused you.

I know now...

...there's no place in this big world

for little people.

We....

We cannot do impossible things.

Perhaps I should marry the mole.

He could take care of me.

He could.

I will.

I will marry the mole.

You are joking?

Jacquimo?

Marry the prince.

Jacquimo, you're awake!

Oh, Jacquimo!

Ow! Ow.

Oh, I'm sorry.

I have a thorn in my wing.

A thorn? Well, let me see.

Oh, my goodness.

Hold still.

Ah!

There.

Now it will get better.

Don't get up.

No, no, I go to find the Vale

of the Fairies and the prince.

You silly bird, don't you understand?

Get on my back.

I will take you to the green forest.

Be realistic. Cornelius is gone.

I will find him. Remember....

Jacquimo, don't.

You're sure to do impossible things

Stop! Stop it, Jacquimo!

--your heart

Bon voyage, mon amie.

Jacquimo!

Bon voyage!

No. Jacquimo.

Oh, Jacquimo, stop torturing me.

Cornelius is dead.

There.

Does he know Mr. Mole

is gonna marry Thumbelina?

We'll find out when the ice melts.

Then we'll tell him.

Whoa!

Look, he's waking up.

Let me be your wings

Let me be your only love

Let me take you

Far beyond the stars

Mr. Mole, do you take this

woman to be your lawful wedded wife?

Let me be your wings

Let me lift you high above

Everything we're dreaming of

Will soon be ours

I do.

Anything that you desire

Anything at all

And, Thumbelina,

do you take this mole...

...to be your lawful wedded husband?

Do not forget me.

Forget-me-nots.

I'll never forget you. Never.

Never, never.

Speak up.

Never.

What?

Never.

I beg your pardon?

I cannot marry Mr. Mole.

I don't love him.

What?

Thumbelina!

You?

I marry her!

No, I no marry you. I go home!

No!

Go away!

After her!

Ha, ha! Hi, toots.

I'm not your toots.

Hey, wait.

Thumbelina!

My wings. My wings.

Whoa! Ah.

Thumbelina.

She marry me!

That's the toad we told you about.

We meet at last, Mr. Toad.

Fairy prince?

No. You killed him.

Oh!

The sun. The sun is shining again.

Come on, show me what you got.

Let me go!

Thumbelina?

Thumbelina, come back.

Ah, the sun!

And always follow

Your heart

Jacquimo, it's you.

Of course, c'est moi.

Thumbelina, I have found it.

I found the Vale of the Fairies!

Oh. Jacquimo.

It is true.

I talked to the rabbit,

who talked to the fox...

...who talked to the deer,

who know for sure.

I show you. Jump on. Hang on!

Jacquimo!

We go find the fairy prince.

That's impossible.

You are wrong.

I nearly made the biggest mistake

of my life.

I nearly said yes to the mole.

That mountain looks like a turtle.

But I don't love the mole.

Ah. We are here, we are here!

Hello, hello, hello. Fairies?

This is it.

This?

It just looks like

a patch of ordinary weeds.

Sing, Thumbelina, sing.

Jacquimo, please,

can you take me home?

Sing!

You will be my wings

You will be my only love

You will take me far beyond the stars

Jacquimo, this is silly.

This is a weed patch.

This is the Vale of the Fairies!

Take me home. Please.

Let me be your wings

Like that. Sing, like that.

You will lift me high above

Everything we're dreaming of

Will soon be ours

Anything that we desire

Anything at all

Every day you'll take me higher

Let's be practical.

This isn't the Vale of the Fairies...

...and Cornelius is never coming back.

And I'll never let you fall

You. It's you. Cornelius, you're alive!

Thumbelina, will you marry me?

I will.

Wings. I have wings.

My very own wings!

Anything that you desire

Hello, Mother!

Anything at all

Every day I'll take you higher

And I'll never let you fall

And always

Follow your heart

And of course...

...they lived happily ever after.

You're sure to do impossible things

If you follow your heart

Ha, ha!

Your dreams will fly on magical wings

When you follow your heart

If you have to journey far

Here's a little trick

You don't need a guiding star

Trust your ticker, get there quicker

Ha, ha!

You're sure to do impossible things

If you follow your heart

Come on, Thumbelina!

You are going home!

Your mother is waiting!

Get up, get up!

You're sure to do impossible things

If you follow your heart

Your dreams will fly on magical wings

Sing, my little chickadees!

When you follow your heart

North or south or east or west

Where to point your shoes?

Which direction is the best?

If the choosing gets confusing

Maybe it's the math you're using

You don't need a chart to guide you

Close your eyes and look inside you

Ha, ha!

You're sure to do impossible things

If you know where to start

Ha, ha!

Your dreams will fly on magical wings

When you follow

Just trust the swallow

And always follow

Your heart

Let me be your wings

Let me be your only love

Let me take you far beyond the stars

Let me be your wings

Let me lift you high above

Everything we're dreaming of

Everything we're dreaming of

Will soon be ours

Will soon be ours

Anything that you desire

Anything at all

Every day I'll take you higher

And I'll never let you fall

Let me be your wings

Leave behind the world you know

For another world of wondrous things

Wondrous things are sure to happen

We'll see the universe

And dance on Saturn's rings

Fly with me and I will be

Fly with me and I will be

Your wings

Oh, your wings

Oh, anything that you desire

Anything at all

Every day I'll take you higher

And I'll never let you fall

Let me be your wings

Let me be your wings

Let me be your only love

Get ready for another world

Of wondrous things

Wondrous things

We'll see the universe

And dance on Saturn's rings

Heaven isn't too far

Heaven is where you are

Stay with me and let me

Let me

Be your wings

Be your wings

Be your wings

Be your wings
