Roger Glover & The Guilty Party: Beyond Emily

Rainy night and a mist hanging round
Time is listening like a shroud
Into the house comes an eerie light
Settles down easy around the room
Sending signals out of the groove
Now's the time to be thinking, thinking beyond Emily

Faded photograph kept in a broken frame
Hangs there waiting just the same
Waiting for a love that's never coming back
A distant drum beating in your heart
But now's the story gone a little too far
'Cause now it's time to be thinking, thinking beyond Emily

Cut the thread, take another road
Don't look at the trail behind you
Is that you there in the photograph
Just fading, fading away
Snap your fingers, bang on a different drum
Get those shadows out on the run
Yesterday's papers don't have a lot to say
Just stack them over there by the door
Who's gonna need them anymore
Now you're finally thinking, thinking beyond Emily
