[Primeira Parte]
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
[Pré-Refrão]
Oh, I can t see
The forest
For the trees
[Refrão]
So will you wait for me?
Will you wait for me?
Will you wait for me?
My evergreen
[Segunda Parte]
Standing at the water s edge
The Mississippi s overflowing
Hold your current in my hands
You bring the meaning to my moments
[Pré-Refrão]
Oh, I can t see
The forest
For the trees
[Refrão]
So will you wait for me?
Will you wait for me?
Will you wait for me?
My evergreen
[Ponte]
Oh, I can t see
The forest
For the trees
Oh, I feel so
Hopeless against the stream
[Refrão]
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 in Heaven
My evergreen
