Lyrics
---------------------

We go walkin hand in hand in hand
stop at a payphone to call in our demands
hey operator do you get lonely too?
look what it's costin' me just to talk to you

Emily, can't you see
you don't have to spell it out for me
I'll bring you English Breakfast tea
and you can read the leaves
and learn what everybody else can already see
you should be drinkin your tea with me
Emily

Day 47 is just like the one before
Channel 11 is live outside our door
I watch a little but they don't understand
i love you so I can't let go of your hand

Emily, can't you see
1 and 1 and 1 and 1 is 3
I'll bring you English Breakfast tea
and you can read the leaves
and learn what everybody else can already see
you should be drinkin your tea with me
Emily

Girl you got my number
Call me I'm goin under

I saw you peekin up at the morning sky
I know you're sneakin around with another guy
Somebody's comin/I hear them through the walls
Honey hang up the phone before they can trace the call

Emily, can't you see
you got me beggin on my bended knees
I'll bring you English Breakfast tea
and you can read the leaves
and learn what everybody else can already see
stay here with me

Emily
