Emily

It wasn't supposed to be like this

Another dose of unhappiness

I gave it all and managed to get shot down yet again

So I got drunk, had sex with all your friends

You told me that I should never call your house again



Emily, ah

You saved the day

Emily, ah

When you threw me away



She was always such a pretty girl, nobody like her in the world

A little piece of heavenly that no one else could stand

I see her in my dreams at night

I see her when I close my eyes

I just can't seem to shake Emily



You got your money and I got cast outside

Thrown out on my ass

In the city with no one else

Nowhere else to go

So then I hooked up with a model from Singapore

Emily, I sure am glad you didn't want me anymore



Emily, ah

You saved the day

Emily, ah

When you threw me away



She was always such a pretty girl, nobody like her in the world

A little piece of heavenly that no one else could stand

I see her in my dreams at night

I see her when I close my eyes

I just can't seem to shake Emily, Emily



She was always such a pretty girl, nobody like her in the world

A little piece of heavenly that no one else could stand

I see her in my dreams at night

I see her when I close my eyes

I just can't seem to shake Emily

Emily, yeah



Emily, ah

You saved the day

Emily, ah

You saved the day

Emily, ah

Emily, ah

You saved my ass
