The Blue Days - Emily's Gone

She went missing one long summer day
Twenty four years old eyes blue grey
I last saw her on the 4th of July
She said she'd always wanted to learn to fly

I reported all the details in a worried haze
Police Department filed it away
Saying "these things happen every day
She'll probably be back before you can say"

But you are far away from me and I am far from here
But still somehow the world keeps spinning round

No-one could say which road she took
Did anyone give her a second look?
Memories fade so quick round here
Did she leave or just disappear?

All the Queen's Horses and all the Queen's Men
Waiting for orders as the clock strikes ten
The local news ran a missing persons piece
Between the weather and the disgraced priest

And you are far away from me and I am far from here
But still somehow the world keeps spinning round

Oh what I would give to see you again
Sings the cold wind and the rain
What I wouldn't do my beautiful friend
To see your face one summer day

And you are far away from here and I am far from you
But still somehow the world keeps spinning round
