We were together since we were far   She was so pretty, Emma was a star in everyone's eyes   And when she said she'd be a movie queen, nobody left   A face like an angel, she could be anything      Emmaline, Emma Emmaline,   I'gonna write your name high on that silver screen   Emmaline, Emma Emmaline,   I'm gonna make you the biggest star this world had ever seen      At seventeen, we were wedded   And work day and night to earn our daily bread   And every day Emma would go out searchin' for that place   That never, ever came away   You know, sometimes she come home so depressed,   I hear her cry in the bedroom, fellin' so distressed   An'I remember back when she was far   To the words that used to make Emmaline come alive   It was...      Emmaline, Emma, Emmaline   I'gonna write your name high on that silver screen   Emmaline, Emma Emmaline,   I'm gonna make you the biggest star this world had ever seen      It was cold an'dark in the summer night   When I opened up the bedroom door   To find her lain still and cold upon the bed   A love letter lain on the bedroom floor   It read: "Darling, I love you,   But I just keep on living on dreams anymore,   I tried so very hard not to leave you alone...   I just can't keep on trying no more"      Emmaline   Emmaline   Emmaline
