Emma, and Everything Else
I hadn't seen you for a while
You touched down in Austin
I said hey how have you been
You said between all the hows and the whys this life is ever so long
You're my landslide right into the earth
I never know what to say
I'm just sorry I was late it seems that's all I ever am
I wanna be better for you
I wanna be better for you
I wanna be
How do I grow old with you
To be honest and good and truthful a light in your life
I dreamt that you were still here
You smiled and laughed and your face felt good in my hands
We measured our lives in coffee spoons and music and wine
But now you've gotta go
To find an old soul that could love you as much as I want
I wanna be better for you
I wanna be better for you
I wanna be
And I am no Ulysses
I'll never Bloom
I just hope some of my words will get through to you
And you'll be my Emma patient and kind
And I'll stay restless forever in search of lost time
I wanna be better for you
I wanna be better for you
I wanna be
You touched down in Austin
I said hey how have you been
You said between all the hows and the whys this life is ever so long
You're my landslide right into the earth
I never know what to say
I'm just sorry I was late it seems that's all I ever am
I wanna be better for you
I wanna be better for you
I wanna be
How do I grow old with you
To be honest and good and truthful a light in your life
I dreamt that you were still here
You smiled and laughed and your face felt good in my hands
We measured our lives in coffee spoons and music and wine
But now you've gotta go
To find an old soul that could love you as much as I want
I wanna be better for you
I wanna be better for you
I wanna be
And I am no Ulysses
I'll never Bloom
I just hope some of my words will get through to you
And you'll be my Emma patient and kind
And I'll stay restless forever in search of lost time
I wanna be better for you
I wanna be better for you
I wanna be
