Remembering all you airs and graces
You're back on the street, Evergreen,
Looking for love in ageing faces.
You're only 18 but you think you've seen everything.
Work up a thirst and drown your sorrows.
Wake up and curse the day that follows.
Who's gonna nurse your head tomorrow.
Forget about all your old abuses.
You better stay clean, Evergreen.
I don't want to hear the same excuses.
You're only 18 and you think you've done everything.
Who can forgive your past offences?
Who can live with the consequences?
Who's gonna break down your defences?
How long will you delay our love?
How long ‘til I persuade you love is not wrong?
Love's an anti-hero. Love is so shallow. Love can only grow.
Love must surely grow, Evergreen.
I'm taking my books and files and cases.
I'll see you next term, Evergreen.
Home and alone in separate places.
You're only 18 but I'll miss you more than anything.
When I get home I'll write about it,
Pick up a phone and talk about it.
There's gonna be no doubt about it.
How long will you delay our love?
How long ‘til I persuade you love is not wrong?
Love's an anti-hero. Love is so shallow. Love can only grow.
Love must surely grow, Evergreen.
