Yebba Evergreen
[Verse 1]
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
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, I can't see
The forest
For the trees
[Chorus]
So will you wait for me?
Will you wait for me?
Will you wait for me?
My evergreen
[Verse 2]
Standing at the water's edge
The Mississippi's overflowing
Hold your current in my hands
You bring the meaning to my moments
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, I can't see
The forest
For the trees
[Chorus]
So will you wait for me?
Will you wait for me?
Will you wait for me?
My evergreen
[Bridge]
Oh, I can't see
The forest
For the trees
Oh, I feel so
Hopeless against the stream
[Chorus]
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
