Emily, oh emily

she walks down the stairs so very heavenly

out and about,

she always leaves without a doubt

dressed for her favorite bar,

Who's going to call her a yellow car?

the night goes on,

all the lights are gone

oh emily, my emily

she’s walking across the street so very heavily

who’s gonna tell her when she opens the door,

She can’t smoke cigarettes anymore?

night after night

light after light

emily, my dear

your tears are putting out the flame i fear

oh yes, i still love you the same,

but please throw away the cigarettes hidden in our bed frame.
