Emily Said

And they won't know

There'll be no more razing ghosts

"Wake up," said Emily, "The light outside is heavenly"

She takes another picture then she cries

"Ain't this the sweetest life? No pain or human sacrifice

Just you and me and strawberry skies"

You could cry yourself to sleep

And they won't know (they won't know)

I'll be lying at your feet

With vertigo

You could cry yourself to sleep (you could cry)

And they won't know, my love

There'll be no more grinding teeth (there'll be no more)

Or razing ghosts, my love

You've seen enough

Is it her destiny to only see the best in me

And never say, "Dear, Roland, you are wrong"?

She'll light a fire tonight and we will put the world to right

Just one more Hallelujah 'til dawn

Just remember love is light

Not skin and bone (not skin and bone)

Just go easy on yourself

You're not alone

You could cry yourself to sleep (you could cry)

And they won't know, my love

There'll be no more grinding teeth (there'll be no more)

Or razing ghosts, my love

You've seen enough

Emily said, "Get out of your head

And go make some tea for the two of us (Terry and June)

I know you're sad and life is a drag

But just go and water the plants

These are things that will help your anxiety"

Emily said

And they won't know

There'll be no more razing ghosts, my love

You've seen enough (Emily said)
