Sweet Emily, my bride to be
00:00
Just how long will you stand next to me?
00:03
For we both know, it's more than a load
00:08
For you to bear
00:11
It'd break my heart but I'd understand if you'd
00:15
Leave me for another man with a little
00:19
Less on his mind, less on his plate
00:23
Less in his brain
00:26
Please do not lean on me, I'm unstable
00:30
You're all you need, I've seen it, you're able
00:38
Please do not lean on me, I'm unstable
00:45
You're all you need, I've seen it, you're able
00:53
Sex in the air, deep in despair
01:00
Could you please act like you're unaware?
01:03
But we both know I'm just a dog chasin' his bone
01:08
Please understand, I'm just a man that's nearly figured out his master plan
01:15
Just stick around and you gon' see
01:23
I'm worth every pound
01:26
Please do not lean on me, I'm unstable
01:30
You're all you need, I've seen it, you're able
01:38
Please do not lean on me, I'm unstable
01:45
You're all you need, I've seen it, you're able
01:53
02:00
The more that we both try to fight it
02:15
The harder it's gon' be
02:19
I wish that we could stand united, instead we're crumblin'
02:22
I know that you gon' always love me
02:30
In spite of things you've seen
02:34
In spite of things you've heard me say
02:38
No matter how obscene
02:41
If I am the sky (if I am the sky, if I am the sky), you are the sea
02:45
Starin' back at me... (Me...)
02:51
If I am the sky (if I am the sky, if I am the sky), you are the sea
03:00
Starin' back at me... (Me...)
03:06
If I am the sky (if I am the sky, if I am the sky), you are the sea
03:15
Starin' back at me... (Me...)
03:21
03:28

Sweet Emily, my bride to beJust how long will you stand next to me?
For we both know, it's more than a load
For you to bear
It'd break my heart but I'd understand if you'd
Leave me for another man with a little
Less on his mind, less on his plate
Less in his brain
Please do not lean on me, I'm unstable
You're all you need, I've seen it, you're able
Please do not lean on me, I'm unstable
You're all you need, I've seen it, you're able
Sex in the air, deep in despair
Could you please act like you're unaware?
But we both know I'm just a dog chasin' his bone
Please understand, I'm just a man that's nearly figured out his master plan
Just stick around and you gon' see
I'm worth every pound
Please do not lean on me, I'm unstable
You're all you need, I've seen it, you're able
Please do not lean on me, I'm unstable
You're all you need, I've seen it, you're able
The more that we both try to fight it
The harder it's gon' be
I wish that we could stand united, instead we're crumblin'
I know that you gon' always love me
In spite of things you've seen
In spite of things you've heard me say
No matter how obscene
If I am the sky (if I am the sky, if I am the sky), you are the sea
Starin' back at me... (Me...)
If I am the sky (if I am the sky, if I am the sky), you are the sea
Starin' back at me... (Me...)
If I am the sky (if I am the sky, if I am the sky), you are the sea
Starin' back at me... (Me...)
