Miss Emily by Tom Verlaine Lyrics

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
