[Verse 1]
Evelyn, Evelyn
They're all asking where we've been
And I don't know what to say to keep them all away
Part of me wishes what they're saying was true
Wishes that I could ever be with you
[Verse 2]
Evelyn, Evelyn
I won't tell them anything
But somebody saw us and their minds are wandering
I could live happily in the stories they tell
Happy with you and nobody else
[Chorus]
Evelyn, our relationship was strictly platonic
If platonic means I was madly in love with you
And a part of you was oblivious
Another part of you knew and kind of liked it
Evelyn, our relationship was strictly platonic
If platonic means I was madly in love with you
[Verse 3]
Evelyn, Evelyn
I will go with you then
I don't want you alone
If they're out there picketing
It's on the way back to my Dad's house
I can't believe some of the shit that comes out their mouths
[Verse 4]
Evelyn, Evelyn
You were so quiet and then
You said, "I don't regret a single thing
Everyone argues about when life begins
Nobody talks about when the love begins"
[Chorus]
Evelyn, our relationship was strictly platonic
If platonic means I was madly in love with you
And a part of you was oblivious
Another part of you knew and kinda liked it
Evelyn, our relationship was strictly platonic
If platonic means I was madly in love with you
And a part of you was oblivious
Another part of you knew and kinda liked it
[Outro]
Evelyn, Evelyn
