	Story Behind the Song Song inspired by a friend I met in '91. Written over a period of several weeks. Recorded in Chicago in 1992 at Old Plank Studios. Record in two takes with overdubs. Lyrics Emily sits in a both of the Skylight Exchange wearing something only she can explain. Carefree some might assume, but don't. She just a fan of the wild blue yonder. Passing time only with a close few Emily's friends by choice, Emily's friends for life. She says Henry's on hold but what the hell. In her thoughts our aspirations do wonder. A drag on her cigarette, no man on her mind. The jukebox blares out her favorite song. Emily say men on vinyl pose no threat, and that's the way she likes it. Life is good according to Emily In control totally is she. There you are on the corner again, playing with your new found friend. So What's the purpose of this superficial high cause I can see you're over the edge. It's gonna catch up with you, but I can help you through. So Don't give up on the good life girl still alot of time to change. Don't wast your money on that superficial high, all you'll do is fade away. Spending time in a world of your own. laughing as the walls laugh at you So what's the purpose of this temporary high. The walls are gonna fall down on you. I'm looking a smile on your face but all you do is stare into space. Life is good according to Emily. In control totally is she
