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
