Quiet Houses - Emily Lyrics

There’s ten of us round the table
At the back of the cherry light bar

I’m struggling to get a word in
I’m the quietest by far

I keep thinking ‘bout that purple sweater
That I bought for you last week

I’m a commuter on a rainy pavement
You barely notice me

Trynna catch your cheeks turn red
When you laugh at something he says

I know what you look like when you fall in love
Cause you fell for me once

Emily

Set me free

Everyone’s watching the two of you
Then glancing round at me
I almost nod back at them
‘Cause even I can see

I guess he’s quite good looking
Shoulders like a top athlete
I can be athletic too you know
I’ll be beautiful in defeat

You gotta help me out here mate
Is there anything you wanna say
I know what you look like when you fall in love
‘Cause you fell for me once

Emily

Set me free
