Emily Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Emily, Emily, Emily
Has the murmuring sound of May
All silver bells, coral shells, carousels
And the laughter of children at play
[Verse 2]
Say Emily, Emily, Emily
And we fade to a marvellous view
Two lovers alone and out of sight
Seeing images in the firelight
[Verse 3]
As my eyes visualize a family
They see dreamily, Emily
As my eyes visualize a family
They see Emily, Emily, too
Emily, Emily, Emily
Has the murmuring sound of May
All silver bells, coral shells, carousels
And the laughter of children at play
[Verse 2]
Say Emily, Emily, Emily
And we fade to a marvellous view
Two lovers alone and out of sight
Seeing images in the firelight
[Verse 3]
As my eyes visualize a family
They see dreamily, Emily
As my eyes visualize a family
They see Emily, Emily, too
