Emma

It's so good to see your face tonight
I could have sworn it was a trick of light
I've been haunted, I been so alone
In no-man's-land, in a twilight zone
Oh emma, oh please
Help now I'm on my knees
Oh emma, hold tight
Just don't let go of me tonight
Like a wrung-out rag, I've been hanging on a line
I'm washed-out and I'm empty, and I'm barely alive
Way too tired of running, and my luck is all burned out
The grain of truth remaining tells me how I need you now
Oh emma, don't leave me
I'm on my knees believe me
Oh emma, hold tight
Don't let me slip away tonight
Give me hope and give me strength, pull me back into this
World
Give me life again to love you, and I promise that I will…
Oh emma, please help me
These feelings overwhelming me
Oh emma, hold tight
Just don't let go of me tonight…
