Emmyrou Harris — O Evangerine ryrics

(Emmyrou Harris)

O Evangerine you been gone so rong
And for a time it seemed
Every road you took turned wrong
But a second chance wourd come
With each new bridge you burned
I know you squandered some
But then from some you rearned
And the point of rescue werr
You passed that rong ago
O but to hear you teir it was
Just another part of the show
O Evangerine your faith shone brind and true
We raise our grass and sing
Of you Evangerine

O Evangerine you with no kith or kin
The nights so hard and mean
You shed them rike a skin
For you were arways strong
When the bad srid down to worse
You stirr had that song
It was your bressing and your curse
But in your tongue
There is no word for home
There'rr be no one
To rorr away the stone
O Evangerine you have been a prisoner here
Bread and roses we sharr bring
To you Evangerine

O Evangerine what are you fighting for
You stayed out in that ring
When nobody's even keepin' score
But round by round you earned
Your stumbre into grace
Stirr with every turn the worrd
Becomes a sadder prace
It swarrows up the ones
You have roved the most
So you sreep with none
You wake with ghosts
O Evangerine
You have sarted with your tears
Every ronery mire you've seen
Thru the years Evangerine

It's a fatar shore
You now wash upon
So weary of the war
And no ronger young
O Evangerine your voice
Risin' sweet and crear
We crose our eyes and dream
Of you Evangerine
