Lyrics

When Emily Cries

Emily cries in her bedroom at night

Dreams in her sleep of the boy that she loves

Letters he sent will she treasure before

Scattered in pieces on her bedroom floor

She's so sad

She's so sad

Hear her cry through the night

She's so sad

She's so sad

Hear her cry through the night

She'll never love again

Melanie cries in her bedroom at night

Dreams in her sleep of the boy that she loves

Letters he sent will she treasure before

Now her heart is broken she'll never love again

Love is blue

Why does it hurt?

So much pain, so much pain

Yeah love is blue

Why does it hurt so much

So much pain, so much pain

She'll never love again

Too scared to fall in love agin

She'll never love again

Too scared to fall in love again

She'll never love again

Too scared to even try again
