1st
IF I COULD ONLY TAKE THAT DAY BACK
REPLAY IT LIKE A SONG IN MY LIFE'S SOUNDTRACK
I WOULD RE-WRITE IT SO I COULD ERASE WHAT I FEEL NOW
BUT REALITY IS HEAVY LIKE A DARK CLOUD
I STILL GOT THE MAIL THAT I RECEIVED FROM HER
WE HAD A SHOW SHE SAID SHE'D BE THERE
SHARING THE SAME DREAM, CAME ACROSS THE WORLD JUST TO
SEE US
HOPING SHE COULD MEET US
AFTER THE SHOW TOOK A PICTURE TOGETHER
IN ONE QUICK FLASH BUT IT LIVES FOREVER
QUICK HUG, THE MOMENT PASSED SO FAST
I COULDN'T KNOW IT WOULD BE OUR LAST

chorus
CAN THIS BE THE END OF THE TRANSMISSION
SENDING YOU A MESSAGE
SINCE YOU WENT MISSING
CAN THIS BE THE END OF THE TRANSMISSION
SENDING YOU A MESSAGE
SINCE YOU'VE BEEN MISSING...
AND I'M WISHING AND I'M WISHING
YOUR HEART LISTENS YOUR HEART LISTENS
AND I'M WISHING AND I'M WISHING
YOUR HEART LISTENS YOUR HEART LISTENS

2nd
I LIVE IN A COMMUNITY SO TIGHT, WORLDWIDE
IN ONE BLINK OF AN EYE WE LOST ONE OF US
A LIFE TAKEN. AT AN AGE SO YOUNG. SO WRONG
OUR WORLD WAS SHAKEN
IT'S LIKE THE REAPER CAME AND TOOK YOU FROM US
IN SUCH A CRUEL WAY, IT WILL NEVER BE JUST
MY THOUGHTS GO TO THE FAMILY OF EMMA
CONDOLENCES, IN OUR HEARTS SHE LIVES FOREVER
THE LOSS WE SHARE BROUGHT US TOGETHER
SO I WROTE YOU THIS LETTER
HOPE YOU GET IT. YOU'RE IN A PLACE MUCH BETTER
IN LOVING MEMORY OF

chorus

3rd
THAT'S WHEN IT HIT ME. TAKE A PICTURE, HOLD IT WITH ME
CAUSE THE END COMES TOO QUICKLY
I LEARNED TO VALUE EVERY MINUTE OF LIFE
ON MY PATH SEEN PLENTY STRUGGLE AND TRIFE
COME HOME, KISS MY DAUGHTER AND WIFE
AND NEVER LEAVE IF WE'RE IN A FIGHT
PROMISE TO MAKE IT RIGHT
I CARRY ON THINKIN OF YOUR SMILE. AND THE LESSON
THE HERE AND NOW IS THE ESSENCE

I've been watching this video constantly for like a week now and only just realised this song was about a New Zealand woman... This song feels much much closer to home now and makes it even more incredible. Simply amazing Signmark.

[nittyhooo]

this is a truly beautiful tribute to emma, thank you so much signmark. we look at these photos and its like it was only yesterday what happened. The video montage really captures what a happy carefree beautiful girl emma was. Thank you for this, Im sure her family love it.

@sinamore1986 I believe that this song is about Emma Agnew who were active in the new zealand deaf community

[katthescarymonster]

i go into tears every time i watch this video. rest easy, emma. it will be five years this year since you have been taken away from us. i hope to do something for you to mark that anniversary.

@rachiesmania, Yeah its a common problem. Dont know why!

Marko tekisit nyt lisää biisejä ja klippejä, eiiiiii sais olla niin kiire ettet ehdi lisää tuotantoa tekemään :) Tää on vaan niin mahtava biisi, kertsi jää soimaan päähän <3

[cmnagy57]

Great video!  Can I make a suggestion? Make it without all the English words or in English word order, use more classifiers, non-manual markers/signals, conceptually accurate into following the rules of how to sign ASL songs.

[THEMJFB]

what happened with emma?

[sinamore1986]

So beautiful. Did he really make this song for fan? OMG, how sweet. Can someone tell me what happen to her?

[rachiesmania]

I can't seem to watch and hear this video on my iPhone - it doesn't show up in YouTube on iPhone, does anyone has the same problem?

[sinivl]

Watching this always makes me cry. This is one of the reasons why appreciate Signmark so much. There's not many artists who will actually take the time to write a song about a fan. Not even if the story is as sad as this one. Still... The song is so beautiful. R.I.P. Emma
