 Emily At The Windmill


By Christopher Burns


 
I'm the kind of man who can't work for bosses
spend all my time in a fluorescent office
i would rather run across the galaxy
find out why you've really been so mad at me
 
i would rather take you on a two day cruise
living on a yacht that was built for two
i've been living life like i had a choice
now i know you'll run and find a different boy
 
staring at the pictures that i took of you
none of them developed like i wanted to
i wanted them to show that you're in love with me
 
i want something that the world can't give me
it's gotta be you and no one else
 
emily don't you know i love love love you
sweet emily at the windmill
emily regret is all i know know know
sweet emily at the windmill
 
i'm the kind of man who can't forget to call you
even though it takes away my dignity
even though i'm blacked out at the time
you're on my mind
 
do you wake in the morning and look in the mirror
smile cause your teeth are so white and your skin's so clear
you can have anything you want
 
staring at the pictures that i took of you
none of them developed like i wanted to
i wanted them to show that you're in love with me
 
i want something that the world can't give me
it's gotta be you and no one else
 
 
CHORUS
 
i'm the kind of man who can't live without you
even though i've lived my whole life without you
you don't have a face that i can forget
 
and i wonder sometimes if there'll be another
girl i think about so much and love so long
for no reward
 
staring at the pictures that i took of you
none of them developed like i wanted to
i wanted them to show that you're in love with me
 
i want something that the world can't give me
i want something that the world can't give me
i want something that the world can't give me
i want something that the world can't give me
YOU
