Lyrics John Wetton

John Wetton

Emma

It's so good to see your face tonight

I could have sworn it was a trick of light

I've been haunted, I been so alone

In no-man's-land, in a twilight zone

Oh Emma, oh please

Help now I'm on my knees

Oh Emma, hold tight

Just don't let go of me tonight

Like a wrung-out rag, I've been hanging on a line

I'm washed-out and I'm empty, and I'm barely alive

Way too tired of running, and my luck is all burned out

The grain of truth remaining tells me how I need you now

Oh Emma, don't leave me

I'm on my knees believe me

Oh Emma, hold tight

Don't let me slip away tonight

Give me hope and give me strength, pull me back into this

world

Give me life again to love you, and I promise that I will

...

Oh Emma, please help me

These feelings overwhelming me

Oh Emma, hold tight

Just don't let go of me tonight ...
