Emma - Hot Chocolate

We were together since we were five

She was so pretty

Emma was a star in ev’ryone’s eyes.

And when she said she’d be a movie queen

Nobody laughed

Her face like an angel

She could be anything.

Emily.

Emma

Emily

I’m gonna write your name high on that silver screen.

Emily

Emma

Emily

I’m gonna make you the biggest star this world has ever set

At seventeen we were wed

And worked day and night to earn our daily bread.

And ev’ry day

Emma would go out searching for that play

That never ever came her way.

You know

sometimes she’d come home so depressed

I’d hear her crying in the back room

Feel so distressed.

And I’d remember back

when she was five

To the words that used to make

Emily come alive.

Emma

Emily

It was cold and dark

December night

When I opened the bedroom door

To find her Iying still and cold up on the bed;

A love letter Iying on the bedroom floor

It read:

Darling, I love youBut I just can’t keep on living on dreams no moreI tried so very hard not to leave you alone.

I just can’t keep on tryin’no more

Emily — Oh Emily — Emily
