What is it that's brought you to these God-forsaken plains? Without a one to guide you, not a penny to your name And tell me, what's the substance of that ever-living flame That flies unseen, Evangeline?
I would have you here and now I'd take you for my bride I would watch over you, be ever at your side There's not a thing you'd want for that I could not provide You'd be my queen, Evangeline
Would you lay your life down For the one you've yet to know? Would you wander the wasteland And abide the driving snow? Would you take up the sword Fit the arrow to the bow All sight unseen, Evangeline?
If I was as constant as the bright, cold northern star I would know no darkness, and I would bear no scars And I would hope to one day know the fullness of your heart And never leave, my Evangeline
But I have been as wayward as the ever-changing moon Despair will lead a man to things he never dreamed he'd do And sullied as I am, how could I lay a hand on you One so clean, Evangeline?
But I would lay my life down For the one I've yet to know I would wander the wasteland and abide the driving snow I would take up the sword Fit the arrow to the bow All sight unseen For my Evangeline
Show to me your darkness I'll lend to you my faith Give to me your misery I'll leave mercy in its place But do not turn away from me Do not hide the face I long to see, cried Evangeline
I've followed in your footsteps I've tasted of your fears I've heard your cry upon the wind I've walked your trail of tears And though the days between us now amount to years I long to be your Evangeline
I would lay my life down For the one I've yet to know I would wander the wasteland And abide the driving snow I would take up the sword Fit the arrow to the bow All sight unseen, cried EvangelineTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
