Emily

Lyrics & Info	Tabs	Performances (18)

Woke up to find I lost my mind  Lost heart, lost nerve, I lost my favorite word, Emily  I take my cigarettes, I give 'em a smoke  Oh god, my heart feels froze  I've lost something it seems  I've misplaced my favorite thing, Emily Where does love go if it cannot find a home  One moment here then gone with no forwarding address  Love no longer has a house or residence in flesh I take the keys, I get in the car  To out run this, man, I'd have to go real far  Where mercy wears lace and bottles are thieves  Which of these took you from me, Emily?  I face myself but there's a draft inside  Parts of me drowned in perpetual tide  I want to call names, I want to throw things around  But no bar can buy forgiveness, another round for Emily Where does love go if it cannot find a home  One moment here then gone with no forwarding address  Love no longer has a house or residence in flesh I go in the bedroom, turn on the light  It's like an empty altar, no angel in sight  Religion with no temple, no place to take my worship to  No God for my eyes to see, nor fruit to lay at the feet of Emily. Gone  Gone
