This song was made after I had written songs for our three other children and I wanted something special for Emily.

We've held them close and dried their tears.
And when they hurt we'll be there.
But this time it's not for them.
It's for Emily Elizabeth.

All for you. Just for you.
You can laugh or cry.
And we'll be by your side.

We've read them books and sang them songs.
And they know we always will.
But this time it's not for them.
It's for Emily Elizabeth.

All for you. Just for you.
You can laugh or cry.
And we'll be by your side.

For all the rest we've done our best.
And they know we love them too.
But this time it's not for them.
It's for Emily Elizabeth.
But this time it's not for them.
It's for Emily Elizabeth.
