Emmylou

1. Oh the bitter winds are coming in

And I'm already missing the summer

Stockholm's cold but I've been told

I was born to endure this kind of weather

When it's you I find like a ghost in my mind

I am defeated and I gladly wear the crown

R: I'll be your Emmylou and I'll be your June

If you'll be my Gram and my Johnny too

No, I'm not asking much of you

Just sing little darling, sing with me

2. Now so much I know that things just don't grow

If you don't blessed them with your patience

And I've been there before I held up the door

For every stranger with a promise

3. But I'm holding back, that's the strength that I lack

Every morning keeps returning at my window

And it brings me to you and I won't just pass through

But I'm not asking for a storm

R: I'll be your Emmylou...

*: And yes I might have lied to you

You wouldn't benefit from knowing of the truth

I was frightened but I held fast

I need you now at long last

R: I'll be your Emmylou... (2x)
