Emily

Let's be civilized
We're three adults
Sometimes life doesn't yield
Expected results

And in the end
You have to find your cheer
It goes too fast
If you're not happy why adhere

Yes there's a price
To everything
But did she lose her smile
For your ring

Emily
She's with you
She's been with me

Emily
She's with you
She's been with me

When was the last time
You took her on the town
Please stop shouting
Just calm down

I made her laugh
I made her smile
I don't think you'd even tried
In quite awhile

No need to make
Such a fuss
The status quoi
Is fine with us

Emily
She's with you
She's been with me

Emily
She's with you
She's been with me
Emily
I made her smile

Emily
I know this can't remain

I see your rage
But I had no plan
If it wasn't me
It'd just be some other man

And in the end
You have to find your joy
It goes too fast
To let fears destroy

If I leave
If I stay
It's all the same
Everyone betrays

Emily
She's with you
She's been with me

Emily
She's with you
She's been with me
Emily
I made her smile

Emily
I know this can't remain
