Art Brut - Emily Kane Lyrics

I was your boyfriend when we were 15, 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 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 a flame, 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
