Evergreen Lyrics

I kissed my penny and I threw it in
I prayed I'd keep my soul
I went down to the river where the water ends
The only place I know
Ohhh 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
I'm standing at the wire's edge
The Mississippi's overflowing
I hold your courage in my hands
You bring the meaning to my moments
Ohhh 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
(For the trees)
And oh I feel so (I feel so) hopeless
Against the stream
Against the stream
So will you wait for me (will you wait)
My evergreen
I know it's just as hard in heaven (ohhh)
So will you wait for me
My evergreen
I know it's just as hard (as hard)
My evergreen
Oh my evergreen
My evergreen
My evergreen
Ohhh ohhh
