Story behind the song
Wishes and Memories - we have all been through bad times, we survive best when we are looking forward to better times. But sometimes looking back can also make our day. This is about those wishes and memories
Lyrics
Little Miss Emma she Sat all alone Making a blanket To keep herself warm She carefully stitched Though her hands were so old The rain hit the window The wind was so cold But she sang, sang as she Worked away She knew in her heart that There’ll be yet another day CHORUS I can be charming I can be nice I’ll sing you songs All day and all night I’ll play the music You hum the words And everything’s gonna be right. Davis the carpenter picked up his saw The chair sat before him Was broken and worn He carefully cut all the Dead wood away The straw full of weevils The cloth torn and frayed But he sang, sang as he Worked away And dreamed how the chair Would look on another day Chorus Old father Peter he Stood in the road Going not farther Yet going not home His old bones stopped moving His head was hung low His breath became shallow His heart became slow Yet he sang, sang as he Dreamed away And remembered how once He had run down another way Chorus
