NINE DAYS LYRICS - Emily

"Emily"



Now Emily hides in a way

she is waiting for a

knight in shining armor

and I know that nothing I'd say

could make her see me

as a man of honor



but I am



now sometimes I wish she could see through

all the rain and clouds that fill her sky

and know that tomorrow brings with wings

of bird a song to fill her mind



and I am



oh yes I am



[Chorus:]

the one who can sing

all of the dreams

the one who can make them all come true

if she would believe

I'm down on my knees

but in my hands I hold



Now Emily stands at the door

a picture lies in pieces on the floor

the one where we walked on the beach

the wind blew waves

that crashed upon the shore

oh we are

forever more



[Chorus:]

the one who can sing

all of our dreams

the one who can make them all come true

if she would believe

I'm down on my knees

but in my hands I hold



everything that she wants

everything that should be

as far as her

big blue eyes could see

if she would believe

I'm down on my knees

but in my hands I hold



what do you want me to do

my head in my hands

I wait for the words

to come and make you understand

so tell me I'm right

tell me I touched you down

so deep inside



Now Emily hides in a way

she is waiting for a

knight in shining armor

and I know that nothing I'd say

can make her see me

as a man of honor



[Chorus:]

I'm the one who can sing

all of our dreams

the one who can make them all come true

if she would believe

I'm down on my knees

but in my hands I hold



everything that she wants

everything that should be

as far as her

big blue eyes could see



if she would believe

I'm down on my knees

but in my hands I hold



in my hands I hold

the ring
