Emma

(앨범: Uncovered - 2020)

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, her face like an angel, she could be anything

Emmaline, Emma, Emmaline
I'm gonna write your name high on that silver screen
Emmalene, Emma, Emma, Emmalene
I'm gonna make you the biggest star this world has ever seen

At seventeen we were wed
And 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

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

It was cold and dark December night
When I opened the bedroom door
To find her lying still and cold up on 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 tried so very hard not to leave you alone
But I just can't keep on trying no more."

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
