Evergreen - Geoff Bartley

A dog barks down the alley and I'm lying here awake

and a slow train rumbles through this punchdrunk town

the summer has been hot,

and tonight is pretty bad

and I can feel the dead world trying to pull me down

When your name is mentioned in passing conversation
I act like I've got something in my eye
You loved me in the winter, and you left me in the spring
now everything I touch is burned and dry --I'd like to see it all

[Chorus]
Evergreen!
Evergreen!
All Evergreen!

Me bed is so damn empty, I leave the radio on all night
but I'd love to hear your breathing in my ear
I have watched in fascination the erosion of my kindness
Like I've watched this purest winter disappear --I'd like to see it all

[Repeat Chorus]

But a dog barks down the alley, and I'm lying here awake
And an idiot wind blows up across the miles
there are grasses on the prairies pushing up like new bones
and somewhere out there horses still run wild --I'd like to see it all

[Repeat Chorus]
