Looking back over my cold shoulder
Little girl stepping down to the river
You call for me but I do not answer
In a daze, I was walking away
Losing memories of love and laughter
I was fading into the darkness
It was me but there was no likeness
Emily, Emily, Emily, Emily
It was just a bad dream, just a bad dream
I had a dream, I was going away
Looking back, I could see you dreaming too
Sleep-walking down by the river
I called your name but you did not answer me
And I did not answer you
You did not answer me
And I did not answer you
Emily, Emily
I woke up in the middle of the night
I took you in my arms and held you tightly
You were cold and shivering all over
I woke you up, baby, what's the matter
You were trapped in a terrible dream
You were drowning in ice cold water
I was gone, I was far away
But you could hear me calling out your name
Emily, Emily, Emily, Emily, Emily
It was just a bad dream, just a bad dream
You had a dream, I was going away
Looking back, you could see me dreaming too
Sleep-walking down by the river
You called my name but I did not answer you
And you did not answer me
I did not answer you
And you did not answer me
I did not answer you
Emily, Emily
Emily, Emily, Emily, Emily
Emily, Emily, Emily, Emily
Emily, Emily, Emily, Emily
Emily, Emily, Emily, Emily
I had a dream, I could leave you behind Looking back over my cold shoulder Little girl stepping down to the river You call for me but I do not answer In a daze, I was walking away Losing memories of love and laughter I was fading into the darkness It was me but there was no likeness Emily, Emily, Emily, Emily It was just a bad dream, just a bad dream I had a dream, I was going away Looking back, I could see you dreaming too Sleep-walking down by the river I called your name but you did not answer me And I did not answer you You did not answer me And I did not answer you Emily, Emily I woke up in the middle of the night I took you in my arms and held you tightly You were cold and shivering all over I woke you up, baby, what's the matter You were trapped in a terrible dream You were drowning in ice cold water I was gone, I was far away But you could hear me calling out your name Emily, Emily, Emily, Emily, Emily It was just a bad dream, just a bad dream You had a dream, I was going away Looking back, you could see me dreaming too Sleep-walking down by the river You called my name but I did not answer you And you did not answer me I did not answer you And you did not answer me I did not answer you Emily, Emily Emily, Emily, Emily, Emily Emily, Emily, Emily, Emily Emily, Emily, Emily, Emily Emily, Emily, Emily, Emily Explain Request ×
