Evangeline

Songwriter: Mary Gauthier


She said, "You are not my lover"
So don't look at me that way
Just 'cause I let you touch me
Don't mean I'll let you stay


She said, "Lovers try to change me
The minute I care"
But baby when I'm dancin'
I dance on air, I dance on air

And all the other dancers
They fade in smoke and blue
And money comes from Heaven
God's alive baby
Yes, he comes through

She moves, I can't stop watching
The dirty stage, it's her home
And on my skin her touch lingers
And it's worse
Than bein' alone, than bein' alone

And all the other dancers
They fade in smoke and blue
And my money buys me time here
Where the beer lights and the neon nights
Make a shadow out of you

Evangeline
Evangeline

She floats out of the spotlights
She won't look my way
I'm gonna sit here waitin'
'Til the night, turns to day
