Emily



Lyrics

It was a cold night in the factory alone
When the wolves knocked on my door
There was a sea of light running out of my eyes
I was forced to fight, I was forced to grow

And so the nights went with summer hearts
for the love we share
And tired eyes were the only thing we had left to show

Close your eyes, Emily and I'll be with you
Just close your eyes, Emily and I'll be with you

I am on your side when your heart is falling through
I am just outside I've been dancing with the wolves
But it was harder to keep it
when you were running with the horses

I am the only truth in all of your lies
But I'm the hardest one to believe
There was a flash of light running over our heads
In the distance she was stood on stones that I won't tread

And so the nights went with summer hearts
for the love we share
And tired eyes were the only thing we had left to show

Close your eyes, Emily and I'll be with you
Just close your eyes, Emily and I'll be with you

I am on your side when your heart is falling through
I am just outside I've been dancing with the wolves
But it was harder to keep it
when you were running with the horses
