Emily
Love You Later Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Well you can still call me your lover
But when we're with each other
It's different
And I'm feeling the distance

Well you can say sorry for nothin'
But I know that you're feeling somethin'
When you're with her
So go get her

Oh darling
Tell me honestly
When you hold me,
Do you ever think of Emily?
Cause your mind's on someone else
When you hold me
You're not yourself
So go be with Emily

I felt something real this time
But if it's only in your mind
And your heart does not agree
Then I'm giving you to Emily

Oh darling
Tell me honestly
When you hold me
Do you ever think of Emily
Cause your mind's on someone else
When you hold me
You're not yourself
So go be with Emily
Oh darling
Tell me honestly
When you hold me
Do you ever think of Emily
Cause your mind's on someone else
When you hold me
You're not yourself
So go be with Emily

You go, I'll be fine
You need her tonight
You go, I'll be fine

You go, I'll be fine
You need her tonight
You go, I'll be fine

You go, I'll be fine




You need her tonight
You go, I'll be fine

Overall Meaning

The song "Emily" by Love You Later is an emotional track that explores the feelings of a person who is questioning their relationship with their lover. The lyrics describe the struggles the singer is facing as they come to terms with the fact that their partner may be thinking of someone else, specifically a woman named Emily, when they are intimate. The lyrics suggest that the singer is aware of the emotional distance between them and their partner when they are together, despite their lover's insistence that they are still in love.


The chorus of the song is particularly poignant, as it questions whether the singer's lover ever truly thinks of them when they are together. The lyrics ask, "When you hold me, do you ever think of Emily? 'Cause your mind's on someone else. When you hold me, you're not yourself. So go be with Emily." This suggests that the singer is aware that their lover's heart may not truly be with them, and that they may need to move on.

Line by Line Meaning

Well you can still call me your lover
Even though we are no longer passionate about each other, you can still refer to me as your lover


But when we're with each other
However, when we are together, it feels different now


It's different
The chemistry we used to share has gone away


And I'm feeling the distance
I can feel the distance between us; we are not as close as we used to be


Well you can say sorry for nothin'
You can apologize to me, but it means nothing if you continue to treat me poorly


But I know that you're feeling somethin'
However, I can tell that you have feelings for someone else


When you're with her
When you are with the other person


So go get her
You should pursue her if that is where your heart truly lies


Oh darling
My dear


Tell me honestly
I want you to be completely truthful with me


When you hold me,
When we are physically close


Do you ever think of Emily?
Do you ever think of the other person you have feelings for?


Cause your mind's on someone else
Because your thoughts are focused on the other person


When you hold me
When we are physically close


You're not yourself
You are not fully present in the moment with me


So go be with Emily
Therefore, you should pursue your feelings for Emily


I felt something real this time
I thought that we had a genuine connection this time around


But if it's only in your mind
However, if your feelings were not genuine but rather fleeting thoughts


And your heart does not agree
And your heart does not align with your thoughts


Then I'm giving you to Emily
Then, you should pursue the other person that you have feelings for


You go, I'll be fine
You can leave; I will manage without you


You need her tonight
You crave emotional and physical intimacy with Emily tonight


You go, I'll be fine
You can leave; I will manage without you


You go, I'll be fine
You can leave; I will manage without you


You need her tonight
You crave emotional and physical intimacy with Emily tonight


You go, I'll be fine
You can leave; I will manage without you
