Lyrics

DON'T CRY (GOODNIGHT EMILY)
Ben Bauman, Scott Riggan
Copyright 2000 Pleasant View Music

Goodnight, Emily
Theres so many things that worry me
But whatever comes we're gonna be alright
Goodnight, Emily
Do you wonder whats become of me
Give it a day or two I'm coming back for you
And it's gonna be alright

Don't Cry
Close your eyes and I'll be with you
Though I, I feel like I'm farther than the moon

Don't Cry
I know you know how much I miss you
Don't Cry
But I'll be home soon

Goodnight, Emily
Your so many miles away from me
But you've always been forever in my heart
Tonight I'm wondering
Is this the way it's gotta be
If it were up to me, we'd never be, never be apart

Don't Cry
Close your eyes and I'll be with you
Though I, I feel like I'm farther than the moon

Don't Cry
I know you know how much I miss you
Don't Cry
But I'll be home soon

Leave the light on for me, leave the light on

Don't Cry
Close your eyes and I'll be with you
Thought I
I feel like I'm farther than the moon

Don't Cry
Close your eyes and I'll be with you
Don't Cry
I know you know how much I miss
Don't Cry
Just close your eyes and I'll be with you
Don't Cry
But I'll be home soon

Goodnight, Emily
There's so many things that worry me
But whatever comes
We're gonna be, gonna be alright
