Evangeline

There's a silver stream laid across the sky
 And the city lifts up its arms to it
 As I wait for you, Evangeline
 Yes, my eyes have seen your unselfishness
 And my fingers touched your two sleeping lips
 As the echoes passed just above our heads
 As the city flashed just beneath the cloud
 That concealed the stars and reflected sound
 That protected us from an emptiness
 And then, drifted down in a diamond mist
 As I watched you breathe, as I watched you dream

 In your tenderness, in your innocence
 You were far away, with your secret bliss
 You were far away, with your perfect god
 You were far away in a silent field
 Where the yellow dust traced your naked skin
 Where the gentle flame kissed your hollow lung
 Evangeline, like an acid stream
 Evangeline, like a shining vein
 Evangeline, with your moonlight chain
 Evangeline, with your open gate
 Evangeline, with your steel door dreams
 Evangeline, Evangeline
 Evangeline, Evangeline
 
 Evangeline, Evangeline
 Evangeline, Evangeline
 I can feel it now, I can feel it now
 Feel it now, feel it now
 Feel it now, feel it now
 Feel it now, feel it now
 Then, it's gone
