Lyrics

A COLD NIGHT IN DECEMBER
EVERYONE IS ON THE TOWN
HE STOPS IN TO WARM UP
AND CALM HIS SOUL DOWN
THE RADIO IS PLAYING
HOLIDAY SONGS
WITH EACH AND EVERY ONE
SOMEBODY SINGS ALONG
 
HE HEARS THE DJ SAYIN
I’M PLAYIN EVERGREENS
HOLIDAY FAVORITES
GUARANTEED TO PLEASE
EVERY TUNE HE HEARS
TAKES HIM BACK IN TIME
HE WANTS TO SING ALONG
WITH EVERY SINGLE LINE
 
DJ SPIN THOSE TUNES AGAIN
YOU CALL THEM EVERGREENS
VINTAGE SONGS THAT WARM OUR HEARTS
AND MAKE US WANT TO SING
 
HE TAKES A CHAIR BESIDE ME
OFFERS UP A TOAST
TO THE PEOPLE HE HAS KNOWN
AND WHO HE’S MISSED THE MOST
EACH COMES WITH A STORY
HEAR HIS PASSION RISE
HE TELLS ME OF THE FOLKS
WHO’VE COME INTO HIS LIFE
EVERY SONG REMINDS HIM
OF ONE MORE OLD FRIEND
WHO’S COME INTO HIS LIFE
AND GONE BACK OUT AGAIN
SOME ARE THERE FOREVER
BENDING LIKE THE TREES
HANGING ON IN WINTER
HE CALLS EM EVERGREENS
 
SOMETHING IN THE AIR TONIGHT
MAKES HIM WANT TO SAY
PEOPLE WE HAVE KNOWN BEFORE
ARE IN OUR HEARTS TO STAY
 
EVER ARE THE MEMORIES
IN SONGS ABOUT HIS LIFE
LOVE HAS MOVED ON
LOVE HAS SURVIVED
ITS LATE AS HE WALKS OUT
THERE’S NO ONE ON THE STREET
THE ONLY SIGN OF LIFE
ARE THOSE SAME OLD EVERGREENS
 
MISTER TELL YOUR TALES AGAIN
OF ALL THOSE EVERGREENS
VINTAGE LOVE THAT TOUCHED YOUR HEART
AND MADE YOU WANT TO SING
EVERGREENS EVERGREENS EVERGREENS
