Emily Says

Our fate has seeds in the ground

And there they will wait

Inches from sunshine

And rootless, here they allow

To lengthen the days

And cover us over

'Cause when it is time to sprout

Ringing with silver and cymbal sound

I'm hopin' that heaven will hear me out

Ooh-ooh-yeah

Ah-ah, yeah-eh

It hinges here in the air

A garden in wait, blanket of sunshine

And I'm like "I wanna be there"

And Emily says "hope still appears"

And though I know in my heart, it's right

Feelin' like hurtin' myself tonight

Nobody's candle is burning bright

Ooh-ooh-yeah

Ah-ah, yeah-eh

The wind inside the blades of grass

Will unbind it

(Well I've been to the mountain high)

Well I've been to the mountain high

And melting up into open sky

You are the voice and the reason why

Ooh-ooh-yeah

Ah-ah, yeah-eh
