Evangeline by Tyson Motsenbocker Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You stood slow, is the way I remember you being
The summer slough, innocent love
Growing hard and strong, and teething
So when the sky grew dark, like an old glass jar
Black dye in the water, as a circle spun
We were the lucky ones

[Chorus]
When the thunder rolls
You showed me what a love could bring
When the cold wind blows
Discovered what a love could mean
When the darkness holds, Oh my sweet Evangeline
You were the wild eyes shining

[Verse 2]
Shiver cold, at the wind and the waterside meeting
When summer goes
Do you wave her farewell then sigh towards home, when you can’t keep it
So when the grass bent down, under the loudest sound
Of dead silence surrounding, and what was to come
We were the lucky ones
[Chorus]
When the thunder rolls
You showed me what a love could bring
When the cold wind blows
Discovered what a love could mean
When the darkness holds, Oh my sweet Evangeline
You were the wild eyes shining
