Music & Lyrics by Rändi Fay & Aaron Zinsmeister ©2017
Through the frosted forest stirs a faint yet biting breeze
Daylight fades and minutes stretch like shadows from the trees
I watch and wait in wonder, will you brave the woods for me?
Against the storm; I’ll keep you warm
My dream is Evergreen
Falling from leaden skies, pale wings of butterflies
Sculpted crystals spinning pianissimo here below
Searching the open road, cradling the lonely cold
Frosting windows, filling corners in the night
Purest snow.
Wint'ry rose, devoted to you
Evergreen and true
O’er the frozen river, I will find you through the trees
The fire behind your shining eyes will bring me to my knees
O’er the icy waters, through the woods we’d not foreseen
I'll calm the storm, you’re coming home
My dream is Evergreen
Balsams drip golden balls gilding the empty halls
Scented pinewood bearing cinnamon cologne, yours alone
Lost in the candleglow, dare I hang mistletoe
draped in ribbon like a scarlet waterfall?
Here below
Kiss me slow, my dream will come true
Evergreen as you
O’er the frozen river, I will find you through the trees
The fire behind your shining eyes will bring me to my knees
O’er the icy waters, through the woods we’d not foreseen
I'll calm the storm, you’re coming home
My dream is Evergreen
Through the morning grey now flow the carols of the breeze
Drifted snow obscures the road, the dawn floats through the trees
I watch and wait in wonder, will you brave the woods for me?
Against the storm, I’ll keep you warm
My dream is Evergreen
