Jewel - Emily lyrics

Woke up to find

I lost my mind

Lost heart, lost nerve

I lost my favourite word- Emily

I`ll take my cigarettes

I`ll give `em a smoke

Oh god

My heart feels froze

I`ve lost something it seems

I`ve misplaced my favourite thing- Emily

Where does love go

If it can`t 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

My mercy wears lace,

And bottles of 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 wanna call names

I wanna throw things

But barkin` `bout forgiveness

another round for Emily.

Where does love go

If it can`t 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

No fruit to lay at the feet of Emily

Gone

Gone
