Emily Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Emily, Emily, Emily
Has the murmuring sound of May
All silver bells, coral shells, carousels
And the laughter of children at play

[Verse 2]
Say Emily, Emily, Emily
And we fade to a marvellous view
Two lovers alone and out of sight
Seeing images in the firelight

[Verse 3]
As my eyes visualize a family
They see dreamily, Emily
As my eyes visualize a family
They see Emily, Emily, too

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
