Lyrics
Oh, oh, oh, Emily
I can almost see you down there
On your knees
So desperately
Wanting to please
And so you open nice & wide
And let him come inside
As he offers up his pleasure for your pleasure
And I'll forget someday
Though I don't know how
Like he forgot your name
And he forgot our vows
Oh, but for now
Emily
Oh, oh, oh, Emily
We're really not so different
Poor girl you & me
I gave a life
You gave a night
Believing we had found our sweet forever
But we'll forget someday
Though we don't know how
Like he forgot your name
And he forgot our vows
Oh, but for now
There are tears that we must cry
As we wonder why, oh, why
Lying there awake
Feeling the heart break
Emily
Oh, oh, oh, Emily
I guess by now you've heard that I have set him free
Though tempted you may be
Oh, sweet Emily
You know you deserve a man of measure
And you'll forget someday
Though you don't know how
Like he forgot your name
And he forgot our vows
