Emily

Oh, I wish I could be a little more like Emily

Oh, I wish I could be a little more like Emily

My momma said hold your head up higher

Can't you see there's a whole world to conquer

Don't worry what people say

Hold your own and it'll be okay

Take note of that girl over there

Big green eyes that hold the certainty of self

She knows exactly who she is

Unapologetic, that's the way she is

She has the room and the power of her head

She doesn't know how I long for the confidence she has

Oh, I wish I could be a little more like Emily

Oh, I wish I could be a little more like Emily

How it must feel to be as fearless as she

Oh, I wish I could be a little more like Emily

Walking with her head in the clouds

Living life with no limits, no bounds

Just freely, no stress, no worries, easy breezy

I don't know just how she does it

Such an edge about it, can't put my finger on it

She has the room and the power of her head

She doesn't know how I long for the confidence she has

Maybe someday I'll be that way

Always know the right words to say

I just don't see how that could be me

I wish I could be more like Emily

How it must feel to be as fearless as she

Oh, I wish I could be a little more like Emily

I wish, I wish that I could be more like Emily, it's not jealousy

I wish, I wish that I could be more like Emily

I wish, I wish that I could be more like Emily

Not throwing shade on me

But I wish, I wish that I could be more like Emily
