Lyrics for Me and Emily by Rachel Proctor:
| | | Artist: | Rachel Proctor |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | Me and Emily | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 189 | | | | Lyrics: | Floorboard's filled with baby toys,
An' empty coke bottles an' coffee cups.
Drivin' through
the rain with no radio,
Tryin' not to wake her up.
Cell 'phone says "low battery",
God,
what if I break down?
I'm just lookin' for an exit with a lotta lights,
A safe little
interstate town.
Just a cheap hotel,
With a single bed,
And cable TV:
Is good
enough for me an' Emily.
Some day, when she's old enough,
She's gonna start askin'
questions about him.
Some kid at school brings his Dad for show an' tell,
An' gets her
little mind a-wonderin':
"Where's my Daddy? Do I have one?
"Does he not love me like you
do?"
Oh, maybe I'll find someone to love the both of us,
An' I'll tell her when she's old
enough to know the truth.
Will it break her heart?
Will she understand,
That I had
to leave?
That's what was best for me an' Emily.
That house was never clean enough;
his dinner never warm enough.
Nothing I did was ever good enough to make him happy.
So, I
guess, he gave me what he thought I deserved,
But it would kill me if he ever raised his hand to
her.
Big rigs are throwin' rain on my windshield,
An' I feel like they're laughin' at
me.
Fin'lly the storm is lettin' up,
An' the mornin' is breakin' free.
It's a
brand new day,
It's a second chance.
Yesterday is just a memory,
For me an'
Emily.
Ah.
Floorboard is filled with baby toys,
An' empty coke bottles an' coffee
cups.
Least there's one good thing that he gave me,
An' she's startin' to wake up. | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
