Evergreen

Long gone the days, of which dreams were made

Naive in the glow of evergreen

Innocent days, of fresh airs and graces

The bruising of hearts, the losing of races.

Passionate days, remember them well

The devil may care of evergreen

We measured success in the stains on the back seat

Our tongues in your mouths, our hands on your heartbeat.

Evergreen

Sweet evergreen

You are all the love

There's ever been

You are all to me

And more sweet evergreen.

Gentle the breeze that blows through the trees

Caressing the leaves of evergreen

We married in haste, young lambs to the slaughter

We weep in the arms of a favourite daughter.

Evergreen

Sweet evergreen

You are all the love

There's ever been

You are all to me

And more sweet evergreen.

Here in the windchill years of our lives

We dwell in the shade of evergreen

Stirring the last of the slow burning embers

Counting our way through a year of Decembers.

Evergreen

Sweet evergreen

You are all the love

There's ever been

You are all to me

And more sweet evergreen

Sweet evergreen

You are all the love

There's ever been

You are all to me

And more sweet evergreen.
