lyrics

Song for Emma

Intro
You complete me;
And you love so sweetly;
And you celebrate me.

verse 1
Danced in the light of each other’s eyes.
Everyone shone around us.
Talked about who we thought we were.
And we were the sound of the days as they moved on.

verse 2
And everyone said they thought that we would be
Balanced in life and laughter.
And maybe at times, well we just couldn’t see
That we were the sound of the days as they moved on.
We were the sound of the days.

Chorus
You complete me;
And you love so sweetly;
And you celebrate me.
Don’t let this ever end.

verse 3
Now here we are, some years behind us.
Surrounded by all who know and love us,
With two golden girls who are part of us.
And were still the sound of the days as they move on.

verse 4
And I want to tell you what you mean to me.
You are the diamond light that’s keeping me
Safe when I’m miles and miles away from you.
You are the reason I want to come home.
And when I’m not with you I know I’m alone.

Middle 8
How does it feel when it’s all going wrong,
Wrong and we want to be right?
How does it feel when it’s all going wrong?
Just got to stay light.

Final chorus
Danced in the light of each other’s eyes.
Everyone shone around us.
You complete me;
And you love so sweetly;
And you celebrate me
You are the reason I want to come home.
And when I’m not with you I know I’m alone.
You are the reason I want to come home.
