Emily Kane Lyrics

I was your boyfriend when we were fifteen.
It's the happiest that I've ever been.
Even though we didn't understand
how to do much more than just hold hands.
There's 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 that 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's so much about you I miss,
every time I see a couple 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 ten years... nine months, three weeks, four days, six hours, thirteen minutes, five 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 can't be tamed,
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 aflame,
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!
