Emma! Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Cried you to sleep
Asked if I'm okay
Walked in the sand in my 3 inch feet
Wrote a letter to the moon
When can we meet so I can feel at home
Cry me to sleep so I can feel your soul
How can we meet if I've not got your rolls
Shining
How'd I forget all that we've been through
I'll hold your hand
As you've done forever
My face is glistening
Shining
Cry me to sleep so I can see my soul
Cry me to sleep so I can hear my goals
Cry me to sleep
Cry me to sleep so I can see your soul
