lyrics

Emily's Song

she was know to hold a pocket full of posies
that's what I heard
and I would follow her like Mary's lamb in the stories
that you heard
and even when the wind came howling down
blowing shopping bags all over the town
and even when the branched were laid bare
the girl I meant to please
was looking up at the trees

about then I decided
not to fight it and chase her around
I built a tree house made of Duncan Donut signs
sixty feet from the ground
and now the birds have shown her the door
to my little house in the old sycamore
and Emily Dickenson
would be grateful for what I've done
