Strawbs - Evergreen lyrics

Cousins Long gone the days, of which dreams were made Naive in the glow of evergreen Innocent days, of fresh airs and graces The bruising of hearts, the losing of races. Pa**ionate days, remember them well The devil may care of evergreen We measured success in the stains on the back seat Our tongues in your mouths, our hands on your heartbeat. Evergreen Sweet evergreen You are all the love There's ever been You are all to me And more sweet evergreen. Gentle the breeze that blows through the trees Caressing the leaves of evergreen We married in haste, young lambs to the slaughter We weep in the arms of a favourite daughter. Evergreen Sweet evergreen You are all the love There's ever been You are all to me And more sweet evergreen. Here in the windchill years of our lives We dwell in the shade of evergreen Stirring the last of the slow burning embers Counting our way through a year of Decembers. Evergreen Sweet evergreen You are all the love There's ever been You are all to me And more sweet evergreen Sweet evergreen You are all the love There's ever been You are all to me And more sweet evergreen.
