Life After Emily
Every day I shed more tears
Every day I wish she was near
I wonder if she thinks of me?
My sweet, sweet, loving Emily
How I love thee so very much
How I long to feel your touch
I see your picture in my head
Whether I'm working, or I'm in bed
How I long to hold you in my arms, my love
My Emily, who's peaceful as a dove
But I must learn to face reality
That she is not, MY Emily
She's fallen in love and I'm so happy for her
Even though inside, my soul is in Hell
Constantly tormented by her memory
It hurts so bad that I have lost thee
If she were in front of me right now
I'd beg on my knees
For just a chance to be with thee
It hurts so bad to know I won't see her
Or speak with her, or be there for her
I want so bad to be part of her life
But that time has passed
And I'm in constant strife
I want nothing more than for Emily to be happy
I'd give my life for her
If it would make that happen
She deserves so much more than I could ever give her
But I'd try like hell to provide for her
I'd do anything I could to make her happy
She'd never go a day in her life without laughing
I'd do all I could to take her pain away
And leave her smiling at the end of the day.
