Try this one out... might be the one, love the song...
"Emma" by the band "Hot Chocolate"
... definitely '80's
Emma lyrics
We were together since we were five
She was so pretty
Emma was a star in ev'ryone's eyes.
And when she said she'd be a movie queen
Nobody laughed
Her face like an angel
She could be anything.
Emily. Emma
Emily
I'm gonna write your name high on that silver screen.
Emily
Emma
Emily
I'm gonna make you the biggest star this world has ever set
At seventeen we were wed
And worked day and night to earn our daily bread.
And ev' ry day
Emma would go out searching for that play
That never ever came her way.
You know
sometimes she'd come home so depressed
I'd hear her crying in the back room
Feel so distressed.
And I'd remember back
when she was five
To the words that used to make
Emily come alive.
Emily
Emma
Emily
It was cold and dark
December night
When I opened the bedroom door
To find her Iying still and cold up on the bed;
A love letter Iying on the bedroom floor
It read:
Darling, I love youBut I just can't keep on living on dreams no moreI tried so very hard not to leave you alone.I just can't keep on tryin' no more
Emily - Oh Emily - Emily

here ya go - It's by Pink Floyd xxxxxxxxxxxxx
Pink Floyd Lyrics
See Emily Play
(Barrett)
Emily tries but misunderstands, ah ooh
She often inclined to borrow somebody's dreams till tomorrow
There is no other day
Let's try it another way
You'll lose your mind and play
Free games for may
See Emily play
Soon after dark Emily cries, ah ooh
Gazing through trees in sorrow hardly a sound till tomorrow
There is no other day
Let's try it another way
You'll lose your mind and play
Free games for may
See Emily play
Put on a gown that touches the ground, ah ooh
Float on a river forever and ever, Emily
There is no other day
Let's try it another way
You'll lose your mind and play
Free games for may
See Emily play

Could it be the one by All About Eve -
'Emily lived in this town,
seems it was getting her down,
filled up a suitcase with clothes,
where she went no-one knows
Oh to be like Emily
Out of sight and really free
Follow your heart, she said
Follow the stars, she said
She's a girl we'd love to be,
Oh to be like Emily'
