Emma |
We were together since we were five |
She was so pretty |
Emma was a star in everyone’s eyes |
And when she said she’d be a movie queen |
Nobody laughed |
With her face like an angel |
She could be anything |
Emmaline |
Emma |
Emmaline |
I’m gonna write your name high on that silver screen |
Emmaline |
Emma |
Emmaline |
I’m gonna make you the biggest star this world has ever seen |
At seventeen |
We were wed |
And I worked day and night to earn our daily bread |
And every day |
Emma would go out searching for that play |
That never, ever came her way |
And sometimes she come home and she’d be so depressed |
I’d hear her crying in the back room and feel so distressed |
And I’d remember back when she was five |
To the words that used to make Emmaline come alive |
It was… |
Emma |
Emmaline |
I’m gonna write your name high on the silver screen |
Emmaline |
Emma |
Emmaline |
I’m gonna make you the biggest star this world has ever seen |
It was a cold and dark December night |
When I opened up the bedroom door |
To find her lying |
Still and cold upon the bed |
A love letter lying on the bedroom floor |
It read, |
Darling I love you |
But I just can’t keep on living on dreams no more |
I’ve tried so very hard not to leave you alone |
But I just can’t keep on trying no more |
Emmaline |
oooh Emma |
Nooo |
