Emaline - Ben Folds
I wish it was last September
When we could lose ourselves in crowds every day
'Cause Emaline she don't walk in time
She's not the same that's all you can say
But when I've heard enough
I tell myself
That we've learned our lesson but I
Don't wanna walk away from Emaline
They're talking now
Does she know what they're saying
She's got the air to float above and
I'm sinking into summer champagne
She's dear to me and so expensive
Now I'm not talking 'bout money
When money talks I hate to listen
But lately it's been screaming in my ear
And when I've heard enough
I tell myself
That we've learned our lesson but I
Don't wanna walk away from Emaline
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 all it's worth she's got attention
From people like you who see black and white
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
