Emily Kane Lyrics - Art Brut

I was your boyfriend when we were 15 

It's the happiest that I've ever been 

Even though we didn't understand 

How to do much more than just hold hands 

There's so much about you I miss 

The clumsy way we used to kiss 

I wish I convinced you, you've made a mistake 

If memory serves, we're still on a break 

Other girls went and other girls came 

I can't get over my old flame 

I'm still in love with Emily Kane 

Every girl that I've seen since 

Looks just like you when I squint 

I know you said it's for the best 

I still don't understand why you left 

So much about you I miss 

Every time I see a couple kiss 

I hope this song finds you fame 

I want school kids on buses singing your name 

Other girls went and other girls came 

I can't get over my old flame 

I'm still in love with Emily Kane 

I don't even know where she lives 

I've not seen her in 10 years 

9 months, 3 weeks, 4 days 

6 hours, 13 minutes, 5 seconds 

Other girls went and other girls came 

I can't get over my old flame 

All my friends think I'm insane 

I'm still in love with Emily Kane 

There's a beast in my soul that can't be tamed 

I'm still in love with Emily Kane 

I thought I'd never love again 

I'm still in love with Emily Kane 

The torch that I hold is always a-flame 

I'm still in love with Emily Kane 

I hope this song finds you fame 

I want school kids on buses singing your name 

All my friends think I'm insane 

I'm still in love with Emily Kane 

Emily Kane, Emily Kane, Emily Kane
