cris jacobs - ghosts of evangeline lyrics

Loading...

thought i could tell the voice of john hurt
while the wind whistled up from the dirt
like a man behind the curtain
telling good news in rhyme
in the hum of the static dusk
i heard the faint reveling of olabelle
busking her heart out on a pavement
of some part of a long lost lifetime

all of them long live out their days
singing along, in secret ways
what lingers on among the light that stays unseen
all the ghosts of evangeline

heard a grandmother laughing, i swear
through the chimes of the morning air
blowing past the open window
where precious namesake’s sleep
in those wild angel dreams she’ll stay
where the matriarchs of ancient gods pray on
all things good in our days, to comfort and keep

all of them long live out their time
singing along, evangeline
what lingers on among the light that shines unseen
are the ghosts of evangeline

as we bid a fond farewell
to a little blackbird that flew and fell
let’s imagine what her soul will tell
if we let ourselves hear it

all of them long live out their time
singing along in secret rhyme
what lingers on among the light that shines unseen
all the ghosts of evangeline, of evangeline
