Evergreen

I kissed my penny and I threw it in
I prayed I'd keep my soul
Went down to the river where the water bends
The only place I know

Oh I can't see
The forest, for the trees

So, will you wait for me?
Will you wait for me?
Will you wait for me?
My evergreen

Standin' at the water's edge
The Mississippi's overflowin' (yeah)
Hold your current in my hands
You bring the meanin' to my moments

Oh-oh (ohh) I-ee-I (can't see)
The forest for the trees

So, will you wait for me?
Will you wait for me?
Will you wait for me?
My evergreen

Oh, I can't see
The forest, for the trees
Oh, I feel so
Hopeless against the stream

So, will you wait for me? My evergreen
I know it's just as hard in Heaven
So, will you wait for me? My evergreen
I know it's just as hard

My evergreen
Evergreen
My evergreen
