Emmylou
by Andrew Greer

Album: Open Book


I fell in love with Emmylou's songs when I was twenty-five
I listened to her stores with my windows open wide
And let her slow vibrato take me to another place
Far into Mississippi where the red dirt girls would play

I learned the art of pouring everything you are in song
And it's alright to make somebody cry
She taught me I'm a pearl and life ain't very long
And it's better to make mistakes than hide
Under pride
Ooo-

I fell in love with James Taylor's songs at the university
Where each and every guitar strum would whisper hope and peace
And every time I charge his hymns with making me break down
I'd think of all the grace he gives in every glorious sound

I learned the art of pouring everything you are in song
And it's alright to have a little fun
He taught me how to hold on in the fire, rain, through storm
And it's better to heal from a broken heart
Than not to love
