You never were going to change your mind
Were you, Emily?
You just sat back, took it all for you
There was nothing for me
I didn't mean to prove
That all I can do is lose

Next time that you need me
Don't call me up, Emily
I'm tired of your lies and your cheating
Ways with me
And every time you go
Well, please don't let me know

Emily, you still live inside of me
And, Emily, you are the fire in my tree
So if you should fall, please don't call
And next time you write, I won't stay up all night

You never were going to change you mind
Were you, Emily?
You just sat back, took it all for you
And nothing was there for me
I didn't mean to prove
That all I'm good for is to lose

Emily, you still live inside of me
And, Emily, you are the fire in my tree
So next time you fall, please don't call
And next time you write, I won't stay up all night
'Cause Emily you, just look at you, you're a tragedy

You never were going to change you're mind
Were you, anyway?

You never were going to change your mind
Were you, Emily?
You just sat back, took it all for you
