"Evan" lyrics - JULIANA HATFIELD

JULIANA HATFIELD
"Evan"

Evan, I've never been the same
Since the day I hit my forehead on the doorframe
When I jumped over you and out of the bed
To answer the phone in my mother's room

There was blood but I was all smiles
'Cause I was in love
The mourning doves were waking up
Now people tell me you're a casualty

But that's just a story they heard
Shafts of light dart down between the trees
Can't speak to you in spoken words
Oh, if we could only be but we could never be

Evan, we're burned by the same sun
Wherever you are, wherever I run
I've never been completely anywhere
I never could count on anyone

I've tried to write you off
But I can't so I'll give it up
Evan, I just love you I guess
Evan, I just love you I guess
Evan, I just love you I guess
Evan, I just love you I guess

Evan, I just love you I guess
Evan, I just love you I guess
Evan, I just love you I guess
Evan, I just love you I guess
