Evergreen from Accounting by Quil Darling

In a time of plague and havoc
When the clash of iron did ring
I would meet my love in solitude
In the churchyard Evergreen

She was lacking in her luster
Like some long-forgotten queen
She cast the only shadow
In the churchyard Evergreen

The weeping marble angel
The maiden Nazarene
An oath was made that she'd be laid
In the churchyard Evergreen

She called upon me daily
Singing songs to the unseen
Lamenting life beyond the gates
Of the churchyard Evergreen

Though her words went unanswered
She grew more and more serene
Til laughter found a second life
In the churchyard Evergreen

In time, she came no longer
Just an echoed melody
It was many years til she reappeared
In the churchyard Evergreen

There came a grand procession
And as solemn as it seemed
There was no warmer place than our cold embrace
In the churchyard Evergreen

Now, if you listen closely
You may hear two voices sing
Our love will carry on the air
In the churchyard Evergreen
In the churchyard Evergreen
