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 |
| Emma |
| Emmaline |
