Emaline Lyrics by Ben Folds Five

Emaline

I wish it was last september
When we could lose ourselves in crowds every day
cause emaline dont walk in time
Shes not the same, thats all you can say

Chorus
When Ive heard enough,
I tell myself
That weve learned our lesson but i
Dont wanna walk away from emaline

[on demo:shhhh!]
Tehyre talking now
Does she know what theyre saying?
Shes got the air
To float above and
Im sinking into
Someone should pay

Shes dear to me and so expensive
Im not talking bout money
When money talks I hate to listen
But lately its been screaming in my ear

Chorus

It only took me one look
To understand emaline
Sometimes I dont know what shes saying
Sometimes I do, sometimes I dont
Know what shes saying
But I know I know
I know what she wants to believe

I wish it was last september

Dont let me walk away from emaline
For stupid reasons
Now Im talking bout money
When money talks I hate to listen
But lately its been screaming in my ear
Oh what advice
Girls need attention
Well are you different than all mine?
For what its worth,
Shes got attention
From people like you
Who see black and white

Now Ive heard enough
Ill tell you what
Really shouldnt sit here and whine
Ill take you down to see my emaline
I wish it was. . .
