"Emily Smiles" lyrics

"Emily Smiles"

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Hey girl, I miss your smile
Gotta say it's been a while
Just reaching out, are you okay?
You haven't got a lot to say (oh-oh-oh)
I guess you'll say it anyway (oh-oh-oh-oh)
And whisper dreams that just fade away
Time is flying, dreams are dying
Can't you see we're really trying?

Baby, baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby

When Emily cries
I lose my head and I lose my mind (baby)
Then she says hi
Haven't seen you in a while
Then Emily smiles (baby, baby)

Time is tight, life's a fight
Now's the time, get it right
People laughing, people crying
Can't you see we're really trying?

You wanted a quiet life
Trouble-free hands untied
No one lying by your side
(Goodbye)
So goodbye to sorrow (sorrow)
Say hello to tomorrow (tomorrow)

When Emily cries
I lose my head and I lose my mind (baby)
Then she says hi, haven't seen you in a while
Then Emily smiles (baby, baby)

Time is tight, life's a fight
Now's the time, get it right
People laughing, people crying
Can't you see we're really trying?

We're down on our knees
Nothing inside us
No one to guide us
Floating in silence

Baby, baby, baby, baby (goodbye)
So goodbye to sorrow (sorrow)
Say hello to tomorrow (tomorrow)

When Emily cries
I lose my head and I lose my mind (baby)
Then she says hi, haven't seen you in a while
Then Emily smiles (baby, baby)
Then Emily smiles (baby) (baby)
