Evergreen

Come and make me proud

While I catch my breath

Come and make no sound

Shining in that dress

Scything through the crowd

Openly impressed

 

We’re evergreen

There’s something in between

Timing’s not everything

It’s so obscene

There’s nothing in between

But twenty years and dreams

 

Come into the light

Years have passed me by

Wheels are still on tight

Though the tank is dry

Driving through the night

Never did ask why

 

We’re evergreen

There’s something in between

Timing’s not everything

It’s so obscene

There’s nothing in between

But twenty years and dreams

 

Come and make me proud

While I catch my breath

Come and make no sound

Openly impressed

 

We’re evergreen

There’s something in between

Timing’s not everything

It’s so obscene

There’s nothing in between

Timing’s not everything

 

We’re evergreen

There’s something in between

Timing’s not everything

It’s so obscene

There’s nothing in between

But twenty years and dreams…
