Emma loves Emily in her little own way So alone in this world from their very first day. With her hand on her belly She rocks and she prays as she hums a melody to her babe everyday
Emily Emma-lye, Emma-lea-loa-lay Emily in Emma lies Oh the little lady lays Emily Emma-lye, Emma-lea-loa-lay Emma loves Emily Little lady's on her way.
Momma sings to her womb as the months fade away "Babe I'll see you soon just can't wait for that day" When I see a little face in my arms as you lay Hummin' melodies to my babe everyday"
Emily Emma-lye, Emma-lea-loa-lay Emily in Emma lies Oh the little lady lays Emily Emma-lye, Emma-lea-loa-lay Emma loves Emily Little lady's on her way She moves inside like butterflies Momma feels her tiny feet and she can't deny A rush of tears and fears welled up inside 'Till the day she first hears that baby sigh, hi hi hi hi
Emily Emma-lye, Emma-lea-loa-lay Emily in Emma lies Oh the little lady lays Emily Emma-lye, Emma-lea-loa-lay Emma loves Emily Little lady's on her way
Now her babe's in her arms and she hopes she'll always be Momma thinks to herself "Boy she really looks like me, wish she'd stay this small if there's any sort of way" But her little Emily grows strong everyday And it won't be long 'til she up and moves away So she'll hold this moment and hold every passing day With a song in her heart for her baby girl everyday.
Emily Emma-lye, Emma-lea-loa-lay Emily Emma-lye, Emma-lea-loa-lay Emily Emma-lye, Emma-lea-loa-lay Emma loves Emily, little lady's on her way Emma loves Emily, Little lady's on her way.
