Emma

Emma woke up today
With a pain in her head and a fire in her eyes
Cause she realized that last night
She lost the moon while counting all the stars in the sky
Emma was late to work today
With tears in her eyes and the makeup running down her face
Cause she realized that last night
She let him go
The only thing that ever made her feel whole
And she'll never know
What it took him to watch her walk away
And not say anything at all
But one day she's gonna wake up
She's gonna realize

Stars only fly so high
She could've reached them if she tried
But sometimes you only get one more night
You only get one more try
And sometimes even stars fall from the sky
So darling please don't cry

Emma drives home all alone
Tear-blurred eyes and icy roads
And she knows that time never moves slow
That the moment's here
Then in the blink of an eye it disappears

Deer in the headlights she spins around
Flashing brake lights and a blinding sound
And the doctors say she'll never walk again
And her heart it tells her she'll never feel anything
But her eyes they see and her ears they hear
And deep down she knows

Stars only fly so high
She could've reached them if she tried
But sometimes you only get one more night
You only get one more try
And sometimes even stars fall from the sky
So darling please don't cry

Stars only fly so high
You and I could've reached them if we tried
But stars only fly so high
She might've reached them if she tried
But sometimes you only get one more night
Sometimes you just get one more try
And sometimes even stars fall from the sky
So darling please don't cry
