Like Emily

Emily lived in this town

Seems it was getting her down

Filled up a suitcase with her clothes

Where she went, no-one knows

(There she goes)

She didn't wait to explain

She had to rush for her plane

She's seen the earth from the sky

And she waved it bye-bye,

Bye-bye love...

Oh, to be like Emily

Out of sight and really free

Follow your heart she says

Follow the stars, she says

She's the girl we'd love to be

Oh, to be like Emily

Emily lives on her nerves

Stealing the gold she deserves

Sparkling a thousand fires bright

Like the red sky at night

Headful of crazy ideas

Heartful of rhyme no-one hears

It's up to her to decide

Whether she'll seek or hide

Oh, to be like Emily

Out of sight and really free

Follow your heart she says

Follow the stars, she says

She's the girl we'd love to be

Oh, to be like Emily
