Emerald City Love by Emily Donohue Lyrics
I was sitting on our porch in Greenwood
Waiting for you to come home
Looking at pictures of myself
When I was young
Thinking about
How I always felt alone
Until you came along
You changed my song
You changed it all
I found my heart in the Emerald City
Evergreens spelled out your name
I wasn’t scared, ‘cause you were with me
In fact, I’d never felt so brave
Throw it back to last September
I was thinking about leaving home
To a city so crowded and foreign
That I could hardly breathe
But, it seemed
Safer than facing my demons alone
Until you came along
You changed my song
You changed it all
I found my heart in the Emerald City
Evergreens spelled out your name
I wasn’t scared, ‘cause you were with me
In fact, I’d never felt so brave
Finally, you come through the door
Like you have a hundred times before
You say, “I love you”
I say, “I love you, too”
For you, there is nothing I wouldn’t do
‘Cause since you came along
I can’t write a sad song
You changed me
I found my heart in the Emerald City
Evergreens spelled out your name
I wasn’t scared, ‘cause you were with me
In fact, I’d never felt so brave
I found my heart in the Emerald City
Evergreens spelled out your name
I’m never scared, ‘cause you are with me
With you beside me, I am brave
Waiting for you to come home
Looking at pictures of myself
When I was young
Thinking about
How I always felt alone
Until you came along
You changed my song
You changed it all
I found my heart in the Emerald City
Evergreens spelled out your name
I wasn’t scared, ‘cause you were with me
In fact, I’d never felt so brave
Throw it back to last September
I was thinking about leaving home
To a city so crowded and foreign
That I could hardly breathe
But, it seemed
Safer than facing my demons alone
Until you came along
You changed my song
You changed it all
I found my heart in the Emerald City
Evergreens spelled out your name
I wasn’t scared, ‘cause you were with me
In fact, I’d never felt so brave
Finally, you come through the door
Like you have a hundred times before
You say, “I love you”
I say, “I love you, too”
For you, there is nothing I wouldn’t do
‘Cause since you came along
I can’t write a sad song
You changed me
I found my heart in the Emerald City
Evergreens spelled out your name
I wasn’t scared, ‘cause you were with me
In fact, I’d never felt so brave
I found my heart in the Emerald City
Evergreens spelled out your name
I’m never scared, ‘cause you are with me
With you beside me, I am brave
