Ben Folds Five Amelia Bright Lyrics

Amelia Bright Lyrics

hey, something is new

it got into me

and I hope that it got into
you

the way my covers are made

trumpets will play

and I hope
that it's inside,

I hope that it got into you



there's no
doubt

here lies Amelia Bright

in a red 50's dress

from a
thrift shop nearby

I laid on the ground

and stared at the sky

with Amelia Bright



there's clothes

that hide them away

there's me spread

all over the floor

and I'm lost in one
place,

I'm stuck, and I'm straight,

and I hope that you feel the
same way



there's no doubt

here lies Amelia Bright

in a
red 50's dress

from a thrift shop nearby

I laid on the grass

and stared at the sky

with Amelia Bright



there's no
doubt,

there's nothing to work out

you're alone,

'cause
you're always on your own

when you yawn,

it makes me want to yawn,
too



plain, expressionless view

it got into you,

with a
necklace, no shoes,

the promise of truth,

and a life to be bright
and new



there's no doubt

here lies Amelia Bright

over
the bars of

the graveyard at night

I laid on the grass

and
stared at the sky

with Amelia Bright,

with Amelia Bright,

with Amelia Bright
