Lyrics
EMILY
Newspapers read on Saturday,
Girl lost her sight in line today,
Waiting for bread and smiles
Just like an old worn photograph
No one will miss, no one will lack
Still I heard the story sold
CHORUS
Emily, Emily
Who are we?
Emily, Emilyyeee
Emily, Emily
Who are we?
Emily, Emilyyeee
And so she feels her way around,
Colours of day have turned to sound,
Still she reads the writing on the walls
Newspapers read on Saturday,
Girl lost her sight in line today,
Waiting for bread and smiles
CHORUS
Emily, Emily
Who are we?
Emily, Emilyyeee
Emily, Emily
Who are we?
Emily, Emilyyeee
