Hard contemporary folk and acoustic rock
Lyrics
Emily runs like a thief in the night
Steals a kiss, slips your heart in her pocket
Heading out on a one way flight
She wont cry but she's not far from it
I dont know where she going
Or what she's gonna do
She doesnt either
It's all brand new, she says
If you love someone you've gotta set them free
Run Emily wild and free
Like a wave in motion
A river to the sea
I'm lost in your ocean
Where I want to be
Run Emily fast as you can
Climb Kachenjunga
Be a gypsy dancer
But when you're ready
Please come home to me
Oh Emily
Emily wakes in the morning light
Steals a glance at the girl in the mirror
She's shining out like a neon light
Her smile couldnt get any bigger
She's sipping cocktails in Zanzibar
Swapping secrets with the Sphinx
She's taking her time and
She doesn't care what anyone thinks
Run Emily wild and free
Like a wave in motion
A river to the sea
Lost in your ocean
Where I want to be
Run Emily fast as you can
Drink kopi luwak
Drive a Shelby mustang
When you're ready
please come back to me
Oh Emily
I got a postcard from India
Picture of the Taj mahal
Though it says she's missing me
There's no talk of coming home
Run Emily wild and free
Like a wave in motion
A river to the sea
I'm lost in your ocean
And that's just fine by me
Run Emily fast as you can
See the Mona Lisa
Write a tragic romance
When you're ready
Please come home to me
Oh Emily
Oh Emily
Oh Emily
