O evangeline you been gone

So long

And for a time it seemed

Every road you took turned wrong

But a second chance would come

With each new bridge you burned

I know you squandered some

But then from some you learned

And the point of rescue well

You passed that long ago

O but to hear you teil it was

Just another part of the show

O evangeline your faith shone

Blind and true

We raise our glass and sing

Of you evangeline

O evangeline you with

No kith or kin

The nights so hard and mean

You shed them like a skin

For you were always strong

When the bad slid down

To worse

You still had that song

It was your blessing

And your curse

But in your tongue

There is no word for home

There'll be no one

To roll away the stone

O evangeline you have been

A prisoner here

Bread and roses we shall bring

To you evangeline

O evangeline what are you

Fighting for

You stayed out in that ring

When nobody's even keeping score

But round by round you earned

Your stumble into grace

Still with every turn the world

Becomes a sadder place

It swallows up the ones

You have loved the most

So you sleep with none

And you wake with ghosts

O evangeline

You have salted with your tears

Every lonely mile you've seen

Through the years evangeline

It's a fatal shore

You now wash upon

So weary of the war

And no longer young

O evangeline your voice

Rising sweet and clear

We close our eyes and dream

Of you evangeline
