Marillion Evergreen from "Carnival of Souls" Lyrics

Wishing Tree - Evergreen
From the album Carnival Of Souls

The fields where white with the wings of gulls
This time last September
When evening came in the afternoon
Too gently to remember

Spruce and laurel
Pine and yew
Needle, cone and splinter
Will love stay green
As the years grow few
And spring turns into winter

A face as pale as a daylight moon
Embers in the ashes
Evening lights in the afternoon
A fire behind your lashes

Spruce and laurel
Pine and yew
Needle, cone and splinter
Will love stay green
As the years grow few
And spring turns into winter

Breathe on an ember
Time in time our love
We'll lovingly remember
May to December
Limb by limb, our love
We'll lovingly dismember

Leaves that curl at the touch of frost
Fall apart in your fingers
But evergreen is the love we have
While the memory lingers

Spruce and laurel
Pine and yew
Needle, cone and splinter
Will love stay green
As the years grow few
And spring turns into winter
