Only What You Want

A Song for Emily by: Sarah Lightman

Can words describe, this story I heard
It's hard to believe the possibilities of this world
Something I'd see in a movie or read in a book
Not like this, not to her, not like that, not like that

Such a young and delicate thing
That type of rose with luck you'll find in spring
One in a million, you'll might find a billion, but only imitation of the real thing

You will be you will be in all hearts forever
You will be remembered like that musical queen, such a sweet thing
May you fly onto where your soul can peacefully sleep and dream
Of the memories that you wish to see

The clock ticks, I can't believe it happened too close in time
Unimaginable, racing thoughts, they wont drop from my mind

Such a young and delicate thing
That type of rose with luck you'll find in spring
One in a million, you'll might find a billion, but only imitation of the real thing

You will be you will be in all hearts forever
You will be remembered like that musical queen, such a sweet thing
May you fly onto where your soul can peacefully sleep and dream
Of the memories that you wish to see

See what you want to
Be who you want to
Be where you want to
Have all that you want

See what you want to
Be who you want to
Be where you want to
Have all that you want

See what you want to
Be who you want to
Be where you want to
Have all that you want

Only what you want to

-- Sarah Lightman
