About the song
Co-write with Matt Yearbook of New Zealand about trying to help someone through a hard time.
My lyrics were inspired simply by saying "Morning Emma" to a girl at work and thinking "What a lovely name, I'll write some lyrics by tomorrow"
Always loved Matt's songs and vocals, so was pleased he liked the lyrics enough to do this co-write, which is one of my own favorite collaborations.

Lyrics
I know your heart is breaking,
How can I help you ride the pain
Is it cause you failed
At making happiness come back to life again
Where did your spirit fly to,
Why do you lie paralysed
When did you lose your laughter,
Maybe it was after your demise.
Chorus
Come, my sweet Emma,
I will make you smile, let me show you the way,
Lay your head by mine, Ia019m begging nothing more,
I hope you know by now that
Emma, if you want me I will stay, I will stay, I will stay , I will stay.
Its a sad old situation,
And the memories still make you cry,
And maybe all you've learned from all of this
Is some things live to die.
Bridge
Cast your eyes towards the mirror girl,
I hope you see just what Im seeing now,
One sweet lady torn apart,
And I will try to find a way to make you smile
I will try to find a way to make you smile somehow.
