[00:00.00]Emilies - Jed Davis
[00:12.41]She walks white through small back rooms
[00:15.04]And writes on scraps of paper
[00:18.20]Tripping to the summer taste
[00:20.86]Of a liquor never brewed
[00:23.81]In sixteen years she's gone out once
[00:26.79]To see a church by nightshine
[00:29.85]Provincial as a queen
[00:32.57]A light that burns unseen
[00:35.82]Come sing for the mother of the myth
[00:41.34]The character of amherst
[00:44.03]Who will listen from the shadows
[00:47.14]And in some evening's twilight she'll reward you
[00:53.42]Candy falls from windows
[00:55.63]To the eager hands of children
[00:59.28]Words fall through the pen
[01:01.03]Out of a mind the breadth of god
[01:04.95]She peers out at daffodils
[01:07.77]And listens to you singing
[01:10.87]And understands the things that move
[01:13.53]The things that move the world
[01:22.66]Come sing for the mother of the myth
[01:28.12]The character of amherst
[01:30.76]Who will listen from the shadows
[01:34.23]And in some evening's twilight she'll reward you
[02:03.69]Come sing for the mother of the myth
[02:09.13]The character of amherst
[02:11.82]Who will listen from the shadows
[02:14.83]And in some evening's twilight she'll reward you
[02:20.94]And in a hundred years
[02:24.00]Another emily
[02:26.06]Will make this world a poem for me
