Lyrics

Like a carnival ride in the rain

She’s technicolor in a sky of gray

She’s got a million words that she can’t quite say

Oh Emily can you come out today

She stammers and stutters and dances and cries

Like a beautiful painting of jagged lines

I wanna hear what she has to say

Oh Emily can you come out to play

There’s a galaxy in her eyes

Like confetti is flying through the sky

Everyone wants her to change but I don’t

She’s dreaming of the breeze

She’s flying on the trapeze

See the faces down below in the tent light glow

The smell of the hay, the caramel corn

The glitter and gold of the side show

Her dress is torn and her feet are bare

I love her cause she doesn’t care

There’s a galaxy in her eyes

Like confetti flying through the skies

Everyone wants her to change but I don’t

Like a carnival ride in the train

She’s technicolor in a sky of gray

STAY UP-TO-DATE!
