Emily

We all know what it feels like to move to a new town
To not know anyone but the names of a few kids you've seen running around
So we all know what it's like to be approached by a girl
Who extends her hand and says hi
Since then I've gotten by with Emily by my side

Chorus:
We've gone through good times and bad
Been at the same school
Now she is my best friend
And there's nothing she won't do for me
When I cry, she has a shoulder for me to cry on
When I'm glad, she has the energy to jump around with me
That's Emily

We all know what it feels like to start middle school
To not know anyone but our friends
So we all know what it's like to have a different schedule
But with a friend who'll go through the trouble to change hers
Just to be with you
Since then I've gotten by with Emily in school

Chorus---

We all know what it's like to watch your best friend fall in love
To see her so happy for once when she's not with you
So we all know what it's like to still have a crush while
She's riding with style
But since then I've gotten by with Emily for awhile, oh

Chorus (2x)---

I wrote this about my best friend. She is always there for me and will always be there for me, as I will be for her. She is the best person in the whole world and a sister to me.
