Heirlooms Of August Andrew & Emma lyrics

I talk to your picture
When I'm here at night alone
When the darkness and the cold autumn wind
seem to be my only friends
Then your star strikes me like a pile of coal
strung and wild and juvenile
With your little smile
soft as the rain
You ease my dear brother's pain
Andrew
How my heart's in disarray
But you take it all away
If only for a little while
Andrew
Your sweet sister how she clings to me
Tenderness I can't deny
And it stirs my pride when her little arms
Are reaching up for me

When the moon is hanging over my back yard
Shrouded by the cotton clouds
Still the glow comes pouring
Through my window
And I have to step outside
To think of
Emma
I get lost in your blue eyes
And how they mesmerize me
If only for a little while
Emma
Emma
Emma
Emma
