Emily Songtext
von Madison Violet

Oh, you left me holding flowers
On my way with steady hand
Salty water morning hours
Oh, these eyes had other plans

Oh, the schools that fled the seas
When they heard me crying out
I′m ready as I'd ever be
I′m ready like the autumn fall leaves

Oh, Emily
Feel your breath upon the shore
Oh, Emily
It's the calm before the storm

Oh, you left me no good reason
But hard guessing holds the hour
Long for easy summer evenings
Trains to Jersey whiskey sours


And the birds that fled the skies
When they heard me crying out
I'm ready as I′d ever be
I′m ready like the kite in April breeze

Oh, Emily
With that look back in your eye
Oh, Emily
It's a race against the tide

Oh, the ants that fled the hills
When they heard me crying out

Oh, Emily
I got pockets full of shells
Oh, Emily
And a hard luck song to tell
Oh, Emily
I wish, I wish you well

Oh, Emily
I wish, I wish you well
Oh, Emily
I wish, I wish you well
Oh, Emily
I wish, I wish you well
