(Verlaine)
|
Day after day, I heard your voice,
|
In the silence, burning me up,
|
Burning me up,
|
Emily
|
I worship you
|
You are in my dreams.
|
|
You don't know me, or my face,
|
But I like to work around your place
|
I'll be your handyman,
|
I'll be your handyman,
|
Until the sun goes down.
|
|
I'm working hard
|
Till my debt's been paid,
|
Till my debt's been paid.
|
|
Day after day, Miss Emily,
|
I think of you, so fine,
|
So fine.
|
|
You don't know me, or my face,
|
But I like to work around your place
|
Miss Emily,
|
Will you take me on?
|
I'll work real hard
|
Until the sun goes down.
|
I'll be your handyman,
|
Until the sun goes down,
|
I'll be your handyman.
|
You don't know me, or my face,
|
But I like to work around your place
|
Miss Emily,
|
I'll work real hard
|
Miss Emily, Until the sun goes down.
|
