"Emily" lyrics

I'm on my way
But here's a song to take my place
Every word is meant for you, my darling Emily

So, when you're done
You'll see the view's too good to jump
How a flower breaks through concrete just to see the sun

And your heart may be smashed open
And your life may feel like it's over
And your hopes may be dashed and broken
But I'm here, if you need to take cover

Don't ever change
There's always one who gets away
But your heart belongs to someone who will make you safe

We, men, are fools
We even tried to bomb the moon
So, it's lucky we see so much of your mum in you

And your heart may be smashed open
And your life may feel like it's over
And your hopes may be dashed and broken
But I'm here, if you need to take cover

'Cause your heart may be smashed but it's open
And your life just got real, it's not over
And your hopes will come back, if you want them
And I'm here, if you need to take cover
