Lyrics

Emily

Dear Emily
I really wanna write this carefully
Now that we’re a family
It’s only you, your mum and me

Dear Emily,
We’re gonna live forever happily
I’m gonna ask your mum to marry me
But there’s some things you need to know

Your papa was a rolling stone
Playing in a sold out show yeah
Taking all the highs and the lows
But living with an empty soul yeah
And if you ever read the things they wrote
I hope that you can let them go
I was living in a different world
Before I had my little girl yeah

Emily, when I hear you cry I’ll sing you back to sleep
Do you know you inspire all my melodies
Cause you make me a better man than I’ll ever be
Ever be, ever be
Because of you Emily

Dear Emily,
I saw you way before you came to me
Cause I picked out your name and wrote it on paper
I needed life and life came and gave me Emily
Will I be good enough for you
The truth is I’m afraid of everyone
and anything that could hurt you

Oh Emily
If you ever feel lonely come sit next me
Since we brought you home with us you’re everything
Cause you make me a better man than I’ll ever be
Ever be, ever be
Because of you Emily yeah

Oh Emily baby
You’re all I’ll ever need

When I’m looking at your tiny feet
I feel your heartbeat here inside of me
I feel a love that I just can’t believe
Oh Emily, when I hear you cry I’ll sing you back to sleep
Oh do you know you inspire all my melodies
Cause you make me a better man than I’ll ever be
Ever be ever be because of you Emily

Oh Emily
If you ever feel alone you just sit next me
Since we brought you home with us you’re everything
You’re everything
Cause you make me a better man than I’ll ever be
Ever be, ever be
Because of you Emily

James Arthuer is always coming out with the bangers even 1 month later

Every time this guy sings it’s like his voice is the frequency of human emotions always hits you in the heart.

James Arthur and Ed Sheeran are the only two artist that i can tell for sure that each and every one of their songs will be a masterpiece.

As a mother of a 10-month-old Emily, this touched me deeply. Emilies are the best <3 I hope one day you get your Emily @James Arthur

His voice is like a drug for my ears ❤❤❤

This is absolutely beautiful and brought me to tears, I had an Emily I lost my girl when I was pregnant with her she’s gained her angel wings forever in my heart, hold your Emily’s tight x

Imagine his daughter listening to this when she’s older she will be soo proud of her dad. As a man when you have your lil princess it’s a different ball game. All the dads know
