It's true that you don't always get what you want
Even though you give it everything you've got
But it hurts the same each time that you lose
Makes it tough to keep giving pieces of your heart
You scream out loud and the universe won't hear it
But in your deepest forests, I will be the clearing
When your wishing well has finally run dry
When those shooting stars no longer grace the sky
When the fire burns out and the darkness comes
And you feel like you're the only one
With falling leaves
I'll never leave
'Cause we will always be evergreen
You've always been the kind to stand up straight and tall
Despite the storm that's trying to wither you away
But lately you've been swaying side to side, not trusting what you have inside
But you'll make it even if you're led astray
The shadows come but you don't need to fear them
Cause in your deepest forests, I will be the clearing
When your wishing well has finally run dry
When those shooting stars no longer grace the sky
When the fire burns out and the darkness comes
And you feel like you're the only one
With falling leaves
I'll never leave
'Cause we will always be evergreen
Oh, ask anyone I've had my share of changing seasons
But in the coldest winters we were always something I believed in
When your wishing well has finally run dry
And when those shooting stars no longer grace the sky
When the fire burns out and the darkness comes
And you feel like you're the only one
With falling leaves
I'll never leave
'Cause we will always be evergreen
'Cause we will always be evergreen
