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 Standing at the water's edge The Mississippi's overflowing Hold your current in my hands You bring the meaning to my moments 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 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
