Lyrics: Roger Glover/Randall Bramblett
Music: Roger Glover/Randall Bramblett
Rainy night and the mist hanging around
Time is listening like a shroud
Into the house comes an eerie light
Settles down easy around the room
Sending signals out of the gloom
Nowâs the time to be thinking thinking BeyondÂ
Emily
Faded photograph kept in a broken frame
Hangs there waiting just the same
Waitin for a love thatâs never coming back
A distant drum beating in your heart
But has this story gone a little too far
Nowâs the time to be thinking thinking BeyondÂ
Emily
Cut the thread, take another road
Donât look at the trail behind you
Is that you there in the photograph
Just fading fading away
Snap your fingers bang on a different drum
Get those shadows out on the run
Yesterdayâs papers donât have a lot to say
Just stack them over there by the door
Whoâs going to need them anymore
Now youâre finally thinking thinking Beyond
Emily
