It's feeling like a wasted night
The piano's dead, the drummer's tight
The song's gone cold but no-one seems to mind
Evangeline I'll try again some time

I've heard it from a friend or two
They say they like the things I do
But friends are seldom more than company
Evangeline, you're what a friend should be

[Chorus]
Freedom friend you've found me
Now love is all around me
Imagine my surprise, imagine my surprise

The city streets are no place to hide
And failure loves me like a bride
But points her finger now to someone new
So, Evangeline, I'm coming home to you

[Chorus]
Freedom friend you've found me
Now love is all around me
Imagine my surprise, imagine my surprise

It's feeling like a wasted night
The piano's dead, the drummer's tight
The song's gone cold, but no-one seems to mind
Evangeline I'll try again some time
