Evergreen - Jeff Tweedy

If I get back from wherever I travel

I’ll tell you what I’ve seen

The good and the bad

The hearts and the hassle

In the cities under siege

I’ll tell you all about where I have been

And I won’t ever leave again

Now you might think it’s a lie

When I say I’m going to write

But if I break my pen filling you in

Wouldn’t that change your mind

Evergreen, evergreen

Have you even seen anything, evergreen?

When I get back from wherever I go

I’ll look for you in the shade

A marker in the grass

I’ll tell you at last

You’re not the reason I went away

Sometimes I wish you were the one

Who had left and I had stayed

Evergreen, evergreen

Have you even seen anything, evergreen?

Evergreen, evergreen

Have you even seen anything, evergreen?
