Sweet Emmylou Lyrics - The Life Of A Song - Joey + Rory

Sweet Emmylou, I blew the dust off you 

You're the only one who knows what I'm going through 

And like the hickory wind, he's gone again 

Sweet Emmylou 

Sweet Emmylou, as the needle runs through you 

The way the pain shines through 

Well, I know you've been there too 

Those sad melodies, oh, how they comfort me 

Sweet Emmylou 

Well, I hate to bother you again 

Last time you helped my poor heart mend 

Then he came along 

So I put your records all away 

Thought happy songs was all I'd play 

But I was wrong, oh, I was wrong 

Sweet Emmylou, what are we gonna do? 

It's only been a week or two 

And he's found someone new 

Looks like it's gonna be 

Another night of you and me 

Sweet Emmylou
