Emma

We were together since we were five

She was so pretty

Emma was a star in everyone's eyes

And when she said she'd be a movie queen

Nobody laughed

Her face like an angel

She could be anything

Emmaline

Emma

Emmaline

I'm gonna write your name high on that silver screen

Emmaline

Emma

Emmaline

I'm gonna make you the biggest star this world has ever seen

At seventeen

We were wed

And I worked day and night to earn our daily bread

And every day

Emma would go out searching for that play

That never, ever came her way

And sometimes she come home and she'd be so depressed

I'd hear her crying in the back room and be so distressed

And I'd remember back way when she was five

To the words that used to make Emmaline come alive

It was...

Emma Emmaline

I'm gonna write your name high on that silver screen

Emmaline

Emma Emmaline

I'm gonna make you the biggest star this world has ever seen

It was a cold and dark December night

When I opened up the bedroom door

To find her lying

Still and cold upon the bed

A love letter lying on the bedroom floor

It read

'Darling I love you

But I just can't keep on living on this dreams no more

I've tried so very hard not to leave you alone

But I just can't keep on trying no more'

Ahh Emma

Emmaline

Ahh Emma

Emmaline

Ahh Emma

Noooooo

Ahh Emma

Noooooooooooo
