Evangeline

Take my time to reach to my mind tonight

Walking the halls and turning off unused lights

Hanging the pictures of all I want to see

Holding on tight to the things I could never leave

Beyond a memory

Far from where we used to be

I found somewhere safe And I hope I not too late

Pull my roots into the ground Hold me down

I'll wait for you till the rind grows over me

Pushed out my home and I traveled through the dead of night

And I lost my love on the way to a brand new life

And she said, wait, wait beneath that tall oak tree

And each long day I'll be pining till she's there with me

Beyond the memory

Far from where we used to be

I found somewhere safe And I hope I'm not

Too late, Pull my roots into the ground

Hold me down

I'll wait for you till the rind grows over me

Staring at the fire dancing around the woods

Thinking back now, I'd hold the flame if I could

Sitting underneath that old oak vermillion tree

Said I'll wait for you till the rind grows over me

Beyond the memory Far from where we used to be, I found somewhere safe

And I hope It's not too late

Pull my roots into the ground

Hold me down

I'll wait for you

Till the rind grows over me

I'll wait for you I'll wait for you

Ahhhhhhhhh ahhhhhh
