Emily

Two's up to the days of old
'Cause they ain't ever coming back
And you were the one that walked away
So, baby, why are you so mad?
Why won't you let me be? (Why won't you let me be?)
Emily

I try and try to let you go
But girl, you got the best of me
Emily
Why won't you let me be?

It's a shame to see how far you'll go
Just to make me feel your pain
So, I make love to Mary Jane
She takes my blues away (my love)
So, why won't you let me be? (Why won't you let me be?)
Emily

I try and try to let you go
But girl, you got the best of me
Emily
Girl, you got the best of me
Emily
Girl, you got the best of me

I try and try to let you go
But girl, you got the best of me
I wish I could forget your name
Emily (my love)
Why can't I let you be?
Emily (my love)
Why can't I let you be? (Why can't I let you be?) (My love)
Emily, Emily
Emily (my love)
