EMOTIONAL â Paul Kelly
The days are getting colder
They stretch before me all in a line
Each night gets a little bit longer
And these stars that once were strange now I call mine
Oh, it s been so long since I saw her face
And I just can t find my way out of this place
I took the law into my hands
You d do the same from where I stand
But the punishment here is much worse than the crime
I guess I get a little emotional sometimes
Each night I light a candle
And I get down on my knees and I pray
My home in ashes I can handle
But not to see my loved ones losing their way
If my tongue sounds lame please don t turn away
Don t you see I m losing it a little bit every day
If you let yourself understand
I ll give you my heart and hands
Or else the punishment will be much worse than the crime
I know I get a little emotional sometimes
Do you blame me if I get a little emotional sometimes?
Don t act so surprised if I get a little emotional sometimes
