The dazzling light that you're always emitting
You know it leaves me blind and breathless on my back
The sentence for the crime that I'm committing
Is to need only the one thing that I lack
And I love you still, and I always will
Evangeline, Evangeline
Nothing is as it seems, I'm living in your dreams
Oh my Evangeline, Evangeline
A Western sun pulls us along as we glide
Town to town, we hope no more to roam
There is an ache I know will only begin to subside
When I lay down next to you back home
And I love you still, and I always will
Evangeline, Evangeline
Nothing is as it seems when I'm living in your dreams
Evangeline, oh my Evangeline
My fever broke and I awoke wishing for you by my side
You said if wishes were horses then beggars like me would ride
And I love you still, and I always will
Evangeline, Evangeline
