gill landry - emily lyrics

[intro]
at the altar of your body
i was down on my knees
flashing in foreign tongues
to now dead melody
and i tried to exalt you
as you crucified me
oh, but i do not fault you
woah, emily, won’t you remember me?
that winter’s eve
whisp’rin’ love
whistlin’ stardust melodies

[verse 1]
postcards, paintings, and white haunted trees
i feel you suddenly slow, let out that i see
dreams that we built on a telephone wire
balancin’, fumblin’, tumblin’ through our desire

[verse 2]
i know how one lies to one’s face then lies in one’s arms
for though i can’t have your embrace, i recall all your charms
but if what’s right is wrong, then i wonder ’bout me
am i naive in even believin’ through this madness of years?
sometimes for pain but always for pleasure
maybe some days is as good as never when measurin’ tears
[outro]
but if the world should tear apart
your old fashioned heart
oh emily, won’t remember me?
