Beyond Emily

LETRA

Beyond Emily

Rainy night and the mist hanging around
Time is listening like a shroud
Into the house comes an eerie light
Settles down easy around the room
Sending signals out of the gloom
Now's the time to be thinking thinking
Beyond Emily

Faded photograph kept in a broken frame
Hangs there waiting just the same
Waitin' for a love that's never coming back
A distant drum beating in your heart
But has this story gone a little too far
Now's the time to be thinking thinking
Beyond Emily

Cut the thread, take another road
Don't look at the trail behind you
Is that you there in the photograph
Just fading fading away

Snap your fingers bang on a different drum
Get those shadows out on the run
Yesterday's papers don't have a lot to say
Just stack them over there by the door
Who's going to need them anymore
Now you're finally thinking thinking
Beyond Emily
