Emily Kane Songtext

von Art Brut

Art Brut - Emily Kane

I was your boyfriend when we were 15,
It's the happiest I've ever been.
Even though we didn't understand
How to do much more than just hold hands.
There is so much about you I miss,
The clumsy way we used to kiss.
I wish I'd convinced you you'd made a mistake,
If memory serves we're still on a break.

Other girls went and other girls came,
I can't get over my old flame.
I'm still in love with Emily Kane.

Every girl I've seen since
Looks just like you when I squint.
I know you said it's for the best,
I still don't understand why you left.
There is so much about you I miss,
Every time I see a couple of kiss.
I hope this song finds you fame.
I want school kids on busses singing your name.

Other girls went and other girls came,
I can't get over my old flame.
I'm still in love with Emily Kane.

I don't even know where she lives.
I've not seen her in 10 years, 9 months, 3 weeks, 4 days, 6 hours, 13 minutes, 5 seconds.

Other girls went and other girls came,
I can't get over my old flame.
All my friends think I'm insane
I'm still in love with Emily Kane.

There's a beast in my soul that I can't tamend.
I'm still in love with Emily Kane.
I thought I'd never love again,
I'm still in love with Emily Kane.
The torch I hold is always a flame,
I'm still in love with Emily Kane.

I hope this song finds you fame.
I want school kids on busses singing your name.
All my friends think I'm insane.
I'm still in love with Emily Kane.

Emily Kane, Emily Kane, Emily Kane.
