[Verse 1]
Everyday, I wait in line
Every single day, to see you smile
But when you go
Over your shoulder
Catching my eye
Will it be "see you?" Was it "goodbye?"
[Verse 2]
By the train, you walk alone
Talking on the phone, the birds are easy to ignore
Leaving the station, leave me behind
What does it matter, a beautiful skyline?
[Chorus]
Emma, I never knew the words to tell you
But by now, I'm strong enough
To tear down all these boxes
Are getting in the way of it
[Verse 3]
Everyday, I waited here
Every single day, I wonder where you could've gone
Closed up in boxes, closed every door
When will you notice outside your window?
[Chorus]
Emma, I never knew the words to tell you
But by now, I'm strong enough
To tear down all these boxes
Are getting in the way of it
The way of it
[Bridge]
Everyday, I used to wait in line
Now every single day, I'm alone
Come out of your boxes, you've left me behind
What does it matter, a beautiful skyline?
[Chorus]
Emma, I never knew the words to tell you
But by now, I'm strong enough
Emma, I never knew the words to tell you
But by now, I'm strong enough
To tear down all these boxes
Are getting in the way of it
