[Verse 1] Little hands on my old tattoos You laugh when I pretend to roar Stickers on my leather boots Glitter on the dressing room floor I missed some nights Missed some firsts Chasing strangers saying my name You yawn Grab my finger first And suddenly that stage feels small and tame [Chorus] Emmie baby You turned my loud life down Taught your rockstar dad How to just sit on the ground Every gold record Fades behind your smile Emmie baby You’re my favorite song by miles [Verse 2] You tug my chain Say “up Up Up” While my phone keeps lighting the dark Posters Plans And paper cups Can’t compete with your sleepy heart Crowds can scream They always do They’re gone by the time I’m done But you drool on my ripped-up crew shirt And that’s my real encore Little one [Chorus] Emmie baby You turned my loud life down Taught your rockstar dad How to just sit on the ground Every gold record Fades behind your smile Emmie baby You’re my favorite song by miles [Bridge] I used to beg the sky for thunder For the roar For the rush For the burn Now I tiptoe past your door and wonder How I ever thought I’d need the world in return [Chorus] Emmie baby You turned my loud life down Taught your rockstar dad What it means to stick around Every bright spotlight Softens in your eyes Emmie baby You’re my whole encore for life [Outro] Sleep now Star of my show Daddy’s here And I’m not letting go Emmie baby Hush Don’t cry You’re the reason I put the wild life quiet tonight
