Emily, emily i can't, emily I can't leave So i climb, so i climb on your So i climb on your fire escape In the rush of stealing what was mine I stumbled on the notion of time lost Emily emily i can't, emily I can't leave Forgive me, not today Forgive me stay in your sleep Forgive me, not today Forgive me stay In the last hours of light Your patient pantomime Heals the stories that i tell To myself/and no one else No whisper on my mind No tired arms that bind Can steal you away/from me this time Emily, emily i can't, emily I can't leave So i ride, so i ride on your So i ride/on you hobby horse Finde this a better way With brides dressed in white With dreams of starting over right A kindred soul i'm leaving A past that i must fight Discover my freedloms/up in lights The kiss that is america The babes dressed in blue My wish of starting over/lies with you Forgive me...
