歌曲歌詞
When Alexander met Emma
The first day she came to New York
Sach's cafe in Manhattan
Coffee and cigarettes and talk
Sun beating down on the east side
Introductions are made in the haze
Emma meet Alexander
Emma just smiles as she says
Take my hand
I'll take yours
Save my life
I'll save yours
Life stretches loudly before her
From the Bowery to old Suffolk street
The five dollar bill in her pocket
And a world full of people to meet
Ships riggin' up in the Hudson
Waiting for love to set sail
Emma she tells Alexander
I'll be there when you walk from the jail
Take my hand
I'll take yours
Save my life
I'll save yours
Newspaper talk turns to headlines
A love so cemented in fame
A word to the strike breaking bosses
Propaganda in deed and in name
Fourteen long years on the island
It's a lifetime of summers to wait
And Emma she meets Alexander
As they unlock the last prison gate
Take my hand
I'll take yours
Save my life
I'll save yours
