Lyrics:
It wasn't supposed to be like this
Another dose of unhappiness
I gave it all and managed to get shot down yet again
So I got drunk
Had sex with all your friends
You told me that I should never call your house again

Emily, you saved the day
Emily, when you threw me away

She was always such a pretty girl
Nobody like her in the world
A little piece of heavenly
That no one else could stand
I see you in my dreams at night
I see you when I close my eyes
I just can't seem to shake, Emily

You got your money and I got cast
Outside thrown out on my ass
In the city with no one else, no where else to go
So then I hooked up with that model from Singapore
Emily, I sure am glad that you didn't want me anymore


She was always such a pretty girl
Nobody like her in the world
A little piece of heavenly
That no one else could stand
I see you in my dreams at night
I see you when I close my eyes
I just can't seem to shake, Emily
Yeah

Emily, you saved the day
Emily, you saved the day
Emily, you saved my ass
