O Evangeline - Emmylou Harris[00:00:00]

O Evangeline you been gone[00:00:38]

So long[00:00:43]

And for a time it seemed[00:00:45]

Every road you took turned wrong[00:00:48]

But a second chance would come[00:00:52]

With each new bridge you burned[00:00:55]

I know you squandered some[00:00:58]

But then from some you learned[00:01:02]

And the point of rescue well[00:01:05]

You passed that long ago[00:01:09]

O but to hear you teil it was[00:01:13]

Just another part of the show[00:01:16]

O Evangeline your faith shone[00:01:20]

Blind and true[00:01:24]

We raise our glass and sing[00:01:26]

Of you Evangeline[00:01:30]

O Evangeline you with[00:01:47]

No kith or kin[00:01:51]

The nights so hard and mean[00:01:54]

You shed them like a skin[00:01:57]

For you were always strong[00:02:00]

When the bad slid down[00:02:04]

To worse[00:02:06]

You still had that song[00:02:08]

It was your blessing[00:02:10]

And your curse[00:02:12]

But in your tongue[00:02:15]

There is no word for home[00:02:18]

There'll be no one[00:02:22]

To roll away the stone[00:02:25]

O Evangeline you have been[00:02:28]

A prisoner here[00:02:32]

Bread and roses we shall bring[00:02:35]

To you Evangeline[00:02:38]

O Evangeline what are you[00:03:13]

Fighting for[00:03:17]

You stayed out in that ring[00:03:19]

When nobody's even keeping score[00:03:22]

But round by round you earned[00:03:26]

Your stumble into grace[00:03:29]

Still with every turn the world[00:03:33]

Becomes a sadder place[00:03:37]

It swallows up the ones[00:03:40]

You have loved the most[00:03:44]

So you sleep with none[00:03:47]

And you wake with ghosts[00:03:51]

O Evangeline[00:03:54]

You have salted with your tears[00:03:57]

Every lonely mile you've seen[00:04:00]

Through the years Evangeline[00:04:04]

It's a fatal shore[00:04:25]

You now wash upon[00:04:28]

So weary of the war[00:04:31]

And no longer young[00:04:36]

O Evangeline your voice[00:04:39]

Rising sweet and clear[00:04:42]

We close our eyes and dream[00:04:45]

Of you Evangeline[00:04:49]
