EMILY'S EYES I was driving myself crazy Nearly out of my mind I was singing about a lost love I was singing about hard times I was trying to write a new song Find a line I hadn't used In the three-hundred songs before And themes worn out by my muse Then I thought I saw a sign That butterflies are still alive Deep in her eyes If love truly shines light I bet it looks a lot like Emily's eyes Some nights I feel like a poet Some nights I feel like a clown Sometimes it could go either way Depending on the town There were nights I could move a mountain Had 'em in the palm of my hand There were nights no one would listen And I could barely raise own head Then I thought I saw a sign That butterflies are still alive Deep in her eyes If love truly shines light I bet it looks a lot like Emily's eyes I was floating on the high plains Cosmic dust just passing through She took me in with a deep breath And then I was born anew Then I thought I saw a sign That butterflies are still alive Deep in her eyes If love truly shines light I bet it looks a lot like Emily's eyes Copyright secured all rights reserved
