Eventually Evangeline
EVENTUALLY EVANGELINE
She'll just stand out there all day
Night time comes - she won't hear a thing
She calls his name out across the water
With all my love I try but I can't seem to charm her
Eventually Evangeline
The door is open all the lights are green
Eventually Evangeline
Don't spend your life away looking for a dream
Evangeline
She watches every boat sail past
Her long lost lover might sadly be her last
Cypress trees sag where they last said goodbye
Many years ago under a cross, beneath the sky
How I tried my best to tell her
Not to waste her love away
Her sweet creole eyes see through me
For that man who's gone her heart will break all day
Time and water roll along
Out by that bayou, emmeline is so strong
She won't ever leave her Louisianne
Locked up in a trance with a ghost of a man
She'll just stand out there all day
Night time comes - she won't hear a thing
She calls his name out across the water
With all my love I try but I can't seem to charm her
Eventually Evangeline
The door is open all the lights are green
Eventually Evangeline
Don't spend your life away looking for a dream
Evangeline
She watches every boat sail past
Her long lost lover might sadly be her last
Cypress trees sag where they last said goodbye
Many years ago under a cross, beneath the sky
How I tried my best to tell her
Not to waste her love away
Her sweet creole eyes see through me
For that man who's gone her heart will break all day
Time and water roll along
Out by that bayou, emmeline is so strong
She won't ever leave her Louisianne
Locked up in a trance with a ghost of a man
