Emma loves Emily in her little own way,
So alone in this world from the 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, Emily-lo-lay
Emily in Emma lies though the little lady lays
Emily, Emma-lye, Emily-lo-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 the day,
When I see a little face in my arms as you lay,"
Humming melodies to my babe everyday

Emily, Emma-lye, Emily-lo-lay
Emily in Emma lies though the little lady lays
Emily, Emma-lye, Emily-lo-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
'Til the day she first hears that baby sigh,
High, High, High, High

Emily, Emma-lye, Emily-lo-lay
Emily in Emma lies though the little lady lays
Emily, Emma-lye, Emily-lo-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, Emily-lo-lay
Emily, Emma-lye, Emily-lo-lay
Emily, Emma-lye, Emily-lo-lay
Emma loves Emily,
Little lady's on her way
Emma loves Emily,
Little lady's on her way
