[Verse 1]

I'm not scared

Of a monster hiding under the stairs

I hear a knocking and I'm going down there

I'm not afraid anymore

Well, every creature's real nice

If you ask about the things she likes

Spooking strangers and smoking on pipes

I'm a stranger no more

[Chorus]

To Emily

You'll always be a friend to me

You're more than just a ghost story

Emily

[Verse 2]

Well, I spent all day without her

But when it came to the witching hour

We'd go frolic in the flowers 'til my feet sure need a shower

Leave a few by the mausolеum

Hope your friends come out to see 'еm

On a night like no other

Just another story for under the covers

[Chorus]

Oh, Emily

You'll always be a friend to me

You're more than just a ghost story

Emily

[Outro]

I'm not scared

Kinda like the monster under the stairs

I hear a knocking and I know she's down there

And I'm not lonely no more
