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 |
|
With her face like an angel |
|
She could be anything |
|
Emmaline |
|
Emma |
|
Emmaline |
|
I'm gonna write your name high on the 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 hard 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 when she was five |
|
To the words that used to make Emmaline come alive |
|
It was... |
|
Emmaline |
|
Emma |
|
Emmaline |
|
I'm gonna write your name high on the 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 |
|
Cold and still upon the bed |
|
A love letter lying on the bedroom floor |
|
IT read, |
|
'Darling I love you |
|
But I just can't keep living on dreams no more |
|
I've tried so hard not to leave you alone |
|
But I just can't keep trying no more' |
|
Emmaline |
|
Emma |
|
Emmaline |
|
I'm gonna write your name high on the silver screen |
|
Emmaline |
|
Emma |
|
Emmaline |
|
I'm gonna make you the biggest star this world has ever seen |
