I’m afraid to let go, so I’m still hanging on
I’m still sad, I’m still torn
I’ve been bruised by the words
They said to me

I see the cars passing by
I try to eat, try to smile
But it’s as bitter as forever

Emily
Why did you abandon me
Emily
Can’t you see
I need you right in front of me
Emily

Don’t look back, look away
That’s the biggest mistake
That I could have made

I stayed up, I’ve been down
Tried to move out of town
But I still kept thinking of you

Emily
Why did you abandon me
Emily
Can’t you see
I need you right in front of me
Emily

Emily
You're my Emily
Why can't you see
I need you right in front of me
Emily

Emily
Why did you abandon me
Emily (just make believe)
Can’t you see
I need you right in front of me
Emily

Emily
You're my Emily
And I need you right here with me
My Emily
