Love on the Shelf I met Emily in ninth grade, with braces on her teeth Sipping on a milkshake, at the local Cherry Treat She laughed at all my jokes, even the ones that weren't that funny And we spent all summer running around, chasing the sunbeams like bunnies Oh, Emily, my love on the shelf You're the one I can't help but tell All the memories we've made, the stories we've shared With you by my side, I know I'm prepared We watched the stars on the roof of my old Chevy Sharing secrets and dreams, feeling light and heady Late nights at the diner, sipping coffee, talking all night long With you, everything just felt right, nothing ever felt wrong Oh, Emily, my love on the shelf You're the one I can't help but tell All the memories we've made, the stories we've shared With you by my side, I know I'm prepared Through ups and downs, we've stood the test of time Through tears and laughter, our love continues to climb You're my rock, my anchor, my guiding light With you, everything seems to always be just right Oh, Emily, my love on the shelf You're the one I can't help but tell All the memories we've made, the stories we've shared With you by my side, I know I'm prepared So here's to us, to our love story so true Here's to Emily, my partner in all that I do With you, life's an adventure, a journey so grand I'll hold your hand forever, together we'll stand
