Thread Name: Lyr Req: Emily
Subject: Lyr Add: EMILY (from Frank Sinatra)
Could this be the one? Copied from http://www.thepeaches.com/music/composers/mercer/Emily.txt
EMILY (Words, Johnny Mercer. Music, Johnny Mandel.)
"Emily, Emily, Emily" Has the murmuring sound of May. All silver bells, coral shells, carousels, And the laughter of children at play,
Say "Emily, Emily, Emily" And we fade to a marvelous view Two lovers alone and out of sight Seeing images in the firelight As my eyes visualize a family They see dreamily, Emily
Two lovers alone and out of sight Seeing images in the firelight As my eyes visualize a family They see dreamily, Emily
[From the film "The Americanization of Emily", 1964. Sung by Frank Sinatra.]
