The Evergreens

from The Howl and the Whisper by Fools of Love

/

lyrics

The city gets the best of us
Young lovers with old hearts
Just trying to make it through the night
Sunrise on red eyes and I resent the morning light
New scenery could comfort me

Those yesterdays are far away
Fast living has us wasting time
Away from love and away from life
So I'm off to the country
Where the stars are your eyes watching over me

I'll live with you forevermore, 'cause I found my way to the evergreens

Do you remember when you were a kid,
Rosy-cheeked and innocent?
Lying small and naked on a bed
Cradled in forever-loving hands
Halos over angels' heads with bodies full of oxygen
We were given all we need to live a better life and now I'm living it, so…

I'll live with you forevermore, 'cause I found my way to the evergreens

On the outskirts of town in that cool, autumn breeze
With the howl and the whisper of the wind in the trees
I will bury my sins and the dirt won't remember my name

I'll live with you forevermore, 'cause I found my way to the evergreens
Never felt so lost before, when I fell out of love with everything
Now I wait at heaven's door, 'cause I know what a life of loving means
And I'll live with you forevermore, 'cause I found my way to the evergreens
