In the cool, cool shade of an evergreen I see you
In a dream I see you
Soft, but strong, you are the song I sing
In the early mornin' light we stoke the fire that's burnin'
And satisfy the yearnin'
To live and love beneath the evergreen
I think I can tell you why
When you walked in you caught my eye
It's the simple way that you dress
And in your eyes, sweet tenderness
BRIDGE
In the cold, clear water I see your reflection
We both got our direction
We're headed far, far away
And there's somethin' 'bout the way you smile
That makes me want to stay awhile
It's the simple life you long to live
Instead of get, you'd rather give
BRIDGE
In the cool, cool shade of an evergreen I see you
In a dream I see you
Soft, but strong, you are the song I sing
And I think I can tell you why
When you walked in you caught my eye
It's the simple way that you dress
And In your eyes sweet tenderness
BRIDGE...OUT
