lyrics

She smiles like a trooper with nothing to say,
Gold in her pockets, a heart made of clay,
Heaven knows, Emily Oh,

Emily Oh she got nowhere to go,
Snow falling blue, she don't know what to do,
Heaven knows, Emily Oh,

She sings like an angel who's fallen from grace,
Rings on her fingers, mischief on her face,
Heaven knows, Emily Oh,

She waves at the rain to hide out from her pain,
Lips painted red though she'd never be vain,
Heaven knows, Emily Oh,

She cries with the children and laughs on the train,
Takes taxis to operas but won't take the blame,
Heaven knows, Emily...
Oh won't you dance with me now,
Oh won't you dance with me now,

Emily Oh, she got nowhere to go,
Snow falling blue, she don't know what to do,
Heaven knows, Emily Oh,
